The FAA is investigating after Colorado Rockies hitting coach Hensley Meulens posted a video from inside the cockpit during a team charter flight, which United Airlines called a "clear violation" of safety and operational policies. The airline stated that Meulens was an unauthorized person in the flight deck while the plane was at cruising altitude with the auto-pilot engaged. The now-deleted video showed Meulens sitting in one of the pilots' seats and making a landing joke. The FAA confirmed the investigation but did not comment on specifics, while United has grounded the pilots pending its own investigation.
