British Airways pilot suspended over claims he left cockpit door open to show off

A return flight was cancelled due to the breach It's always fun to bring your family to work. Unfortunately, a pilot found out the hard way that there are limits to adhere to on such occasions. The family of a British Airways pilot was aboard Flight 173, a Boeing 777-300ER from London to New York. There were 256 passengers aboard when the flight departed. At some point, passengers reportedly noticed that there was something odd about the cockpit door - it was open. Passengers were uncomfortable A source told The Sun: 'Crew and passengers immediately noticed the cockpit door was open and wanted to know what was happening. It made passengers incredibly uneasy.' According to reports, the door wasn't merely unsecured for a fleeting moment. The source informed the outlet: 'The door was wide open for a significant time - enough for people to worry and comment.' As a result of 9/11, the law says cockpit doors remain locked and secured during flight, with specific protocols to be followed should they need to be opened. Since this didn't happen here, the pilot's colleagues turned him in when they landed. The pilot is back in the air The Independent reports that the pilot was suspended and the return flight to Heathrow was cancelled. After an investigation, it was decided that there was no security threat. The pilot was reinstated and is already back to work. In a statement, British Airways said, "Safety and security is our top priority." Solve the daily Crossword

Zoo asks for help naming its red panda cub

Members of the public are being invited to help name a critically important new arrival at Bristol Zoo Project: an endangered red panda cub whose birth marks a significant step in conservation efforts for the species. The female cub, born to first-time parents Neora and Laya on 26 June, has recently undergone her initial veterinary health check, confirming she is healthy and feeding well. Weighing 780g, she has been cared for by her mother, Laya, within nest boxes in the red panda habitat. Now almost two months old, the cub is anticipated to begin exploring her surroundings beyond the boxes. Nigel Simpson, head of zoo animals at Bristol Zoo Project, highlighted the significance of the birth, stating: "We are all thrilled to see Neora and Laya's new cub thriving." He added: "As a first-time mum, Laya has done a fantastic job of caring for her cub and ensuring it is safe, fed and well. This is a huge conservation win for this endangered species. The wild population is thought to be as low as 2,500 individuals, threatened by habitat loss and poaching." The cub's parents arrived at the zoo in 2024 as part of the EAZA's critical breeding programme, making her arrival "very special indeed." To celebrate the new arrival, the zoo is inviting the public to help choose a name for the cub. Keepers have shortlisted three options: Asha, meaning 'hope' in Nepali/Sanskrit; Banita, meaning 'cherished' in Nepali/Sanskrit; and Malika, meaning 'flower bud' in Nepali. Red pandas are indigenous to the eastern Himalayas and south-western China. These typically solitary creatures spend the majority of their day resting in trees, conserving energy.

Only TWO northern counties in top 20 for A and A* GCSE grades, data reveals

Only two of the top twenty counties performing best in GCSEs in England are in the north, the Manchester Evening News can reveal. Hundreds of thousands of pupils across the country have received their GCSE results today with more than one in five pupils (21.7%) scoring a grade seven or higher this year. That's equivalent to an A or A* in the traditional grading system. Since the final day of exams on June 20, teachers and examiners up and down the country have been busily marking the almost 6 million GCSE entries that were entered this year (5,777,000 according to government statistics).

And some pupils in the region will learn of their results via an online app, as part of a government trial aiming to streamline and modernise the process. It's a fractional improvement on last year when 21.6% of pupils received a grade seven or higher, and is up from 20.6% in 2019, the last year before the pandemic. There are, however, regional divides when it comes to pupils achieving the top grades. Out of the top twenty performing counties, only two of these are in the north. See how the regions compare in our interactive map: North Yorkshire came 16th overall, with 20.7% of pupils achieving the top grades. Greater Manchester came close behind at 18th with 20.2%. In Cheshire the figure was 19.7%, while in Merseyside it was just 16.6%. Regionally, just 18.8% of pupils in the North West achieved a grade seven, and just 17.9% of pupils in the North East. By comparison, a quarter of pupils in London (28.2%) have achieved a grade seven or higher this year, and 24.7% in the South East. Nearly a third (31.7%) of pupils in the Rutland achieved a grade seven or higher this year. Surrey isn't far behind with 31.4% of pupils. It means that pupils in the two counties are more than twice as likely to get an A or A* than those in the worst performing county (the Isle of Wight) where just 12.9% of pupils got a grade seven or higher. Hertfordshire has the country's next highest proportion of pupils getting the top grades, with 29.5% of pupils getting a grade seven or higher. That's followed by Buckinghamshire with 28.7% of pupils, Berkshire with 28.4% and Greater London with 28.2%. Staffordshire has the next lowest proportion at 14.6%, followed by Herefordshire with 15/3%, Cumbria with 15.6% and the East Riding of Yorkshire with 16.0%.
