Royal Air Maroc has issued a formal clarification stating that the co-pilot involved in an alleged cockpit altercation on a Flydubai flight was never employed by the Moroccan airline. The incident occurred last Wednesday during flight FZ1073, which was traveling from Abu Dhabi to Tel Aviv, when the co-pilot reportedly attacked the pilot, nearly causing the aircraft to crash.
While Royal Air Maroc denied an employment relationship, it confirmed that the individual in question completed a theoretical training course with the airline in 2025. This statement serves to address public reports regarding the co-pilot's professional background following the mid-air security incident.
