The captain of a Czech airliner flying from Warsaw became ill and died upon landing at an international airport in Prague, CTK news agency reported on Wednesday, citing CSA Airlines spokeswoman Hana Hejskova.
The second co-pilot landed the airplane and an ambulance met the aircraft once it landed at Ruzyne International Airport. None of the passengers on board were at risk.
"Doctors were unable to help, the airline's captain died," Hejskova said.
No information has been released on the cause of the pilot's illness or the cause of his death.
