Firefighters were eventually brought in to get the plane, with 135 passengers and Bangladesh's information minister on board, to take off.
A domestic flight in India was delayed by two hours after a swarm of bees settled on the cockpit window, obscuring pilots' vision and attacking staff who tried to remove them. The Air India flight was about to take off when the bees landed on the window. Staff tried fruitlessly to shoo them away and disperse them with the aircraft's windscreen wipers before calling the fire brigade. Firefighters then used a hose to blast the bees away with water.
