The woman, Vicky Xipolitakis, was filmed helping fly the plane on a domestic flight as it left Buenos Aires for the city of Rosario. By allowing her into the cabin, the pilots broke international aviation rules by letting an unauthorized person sit in the cockpit.
The pilots named Patricio Zocchi Molina and Federico Matias Soaje – not only laughed with her, made her feel very welcome, they also gladly took photos with her in the cockpit.
In the video which was posted to Youtube, the model was heard shouting “I’m going to accelerate and will take off,”.
The pilots were then heard joking that she owns a bit of the plane and as a taxpayer is entitled to fly the Aerolineas Argentinas craft.
Bosses at Aerolineas Argentinas, however, have wiped the smiles from the pilots’ faces. Mariano Recalde said the pair put lives at risk. “As soon as we became aware of the situation, we dismissed the pilots. They are two irresponsible people,” said Recalde.
The airline also wants to penalise Xipolitakis.
The photos were viewed by her 397,000 followers on Twitter with some chastising her for boasting about the event
