机长和副机长在驾驶舱打架？航司回应

近日，一则“长荣航空一名机长疑因飞机滑行操作争议，情绪失控在驾驶舱内与副机长发生肢体冲突”的消息在互联网流传，引发关注。

1月6日，长荣航空方面回应南都N视频记者称，涉事航班滑行速度符合相关作业规范与法规要求，并无网传超速的情况。此外，目前已暂停涉事机长的派飞任务，相关调查正在进行中。

EVA Airways has suspended a pilot and launched an internal investigation after an alleged physical altercation with a co-pilot during taxiing prior to takeoff at Los Angeles International Airport, Southern Metropolis Daily reported on Tuesday.

日前，有消息称，“长荣航空一架客机在美国洛杉矶机场准备起飞时，副机长在客机滑行期间察觉滑行速度可能违反安全规范，遂多次向机长发出口头警告，然而机长未予理会。副机长出于安全考虑，按照标准作业程序踩下刹车，由此与机长发生肢体冲突”。

1月6日，针对上述网传情况，长荣航空公共关系室工作人员告诉南都记者，依据该航班飞机上的快速存取记录器的资料显示，该航机滑行速度符合相关作业规范与法规要求，并无外传所称的超速情况。

According to online reports cited by the outlet, the incident occurred when the co-pilot repeatedly warned the captain that the aircraft's taxiing speed might be unsafe. After the co-pilot applied the brakes in accordance with standard operating procedures, a confrontation reportedly escalated into physical violence.

EVA Air told reporters that data from the plane's quick access recorder showed the aircraft's taxi speed was within operational regulations, contradicting claims of overspeed.

长荣航空方面表示，针对外界关切的该事件机长执勤相关行为，长荣航空于事件发生后立即主动启动内部调查机制，同时通报相关主管机关，以全面厘清实际情况与相关事实。此外，长荣航空也主动提供了员工心理咨询等协助方案。

长荣航空方面还称，基于调查需要，目前已先暂停该机长的派飞任务。相关调查已在进行中，待调查完毕，会尽快安排召开纪律委员会进行审议。长荣航空高度重视同仁的专业操守与工作环境，对任何可能影响飞航安全或职场秩序之行为，均将秉持审慎、严谨之态度妥善处理。

The airline said it immediately launched an internal investigation and informed relevant authorities to clarify the facts. Psychological support has also been offered to the crew involved.

"Pending the outcome of the investigation, the pilot has been suspended from flight duties," EVA Air said. "Once the inquiry is complete, the case will be reviewed by a disciplinary committee. Any conduct that may affect flight safety or operational order will be handled with the utmost seriousness."
