>A passenger jet pilot sparked fury in Iceland after flying a Boeing 757 at an 'alarmingly low' altitude above his hometown to celebrate his retirement. The pilot had been carrying out his final commercial flight after 40 years in service over Vestmannaeyjar, a volcanic archipelago off southern Iceland, on Saturday. Residents of the small island and passengers on board the flight from Frankfurt to Iceland were left startled when the pilot descended to just 100m over the community before landing at Keflavik International Airport. Icelandair has since reported the veteran pilot to the police after he made the unauthorised low-altitude flyover, which was believed to have been carried out as a personal farewell to his childhood home. Chief Flight Officer Linda Gunnarsdóttir said she believes the passengers on board the flight were told about the sightseeing pass during the flight, but Icelandair has yet to confirm this.
