Too much of that Khartoum nightlife

Pilots of Addis Abba-bound airliner fall asleep, miss airport.

“The Boeing 737 was flying at an altitude of 37,000 feet (11,277 meters) when the pilots fell asleep in the cockpit, causing the plane to approach Addis Ababa Boke International Airport without descending.

“’[Air traffic control] tried to contact the crew numerous times without success,’ The Aviation Herald reported. After overflying the runway at 37,000 feet, the autopilot disconnected, setting off an alarm that caused the pilots to wake up.”
