Praise for sick co-pilot captain

[mhm]

A jumbo jet captain has been praised for asking an off-duty pilot to step in for an emergency landing when his co-pilot fell ill.

The replacement pilot was a passenger on a Lufthansa 747 flying from Newark to Frankfurt last November 19 when he covered for a crew member who had suffered dizzy spells, headaches and vomiting.

The 35-year-old co-pilot first became ill when the plane was over Newfoundland but by the time it was half way across the Atlantic a decision had to be taken to divert to Dublin and get him to hospital

Have there been a case where both pilots were knocked out and a "flight simulator" pilot was identified among the passengers to land the commercial plane ?
