The Federal Aviation Administration is investigating the Colorado Rockies‘ recent charter flight on United Airlines, NBC 9News’ Chris Vanderveen was first to report Thursday night.
Rockies hitting coach Hensley Meulens posted a since-deleted video to his personal Instagram account that featured him sitting in the cockpit of an April 10 flight from Denver to Toronto. In the video, Meulens was wearing pink sunglasses on his forehead, repeatedly saying that he would be landing the plane.
Meulens thanked the captain and first officer for the “great experience” in his caption.
“We are deeply disturbed by what we see in that video,” a United spokesperson told multiple media outlets.
