I wish headlines would put relevant information like who they were flying for instead of what they were flying. It's TAROM Airlines.

A report has recently been released about a serious safety incident that occurred on a TAROM Airlines flight, where the co-pilot collapsed after he had not slept the night beforehand. The event that occurred mid-flight in the cockpit in the skies of Europe, triggered an emergency on the service from Amsterdam to Bucharest.
