A Flybe plane
Flybe confirmed one of its pilots had helped police with their inquiries
A Flybe pilot was removed from a plane and arrested on suspicion of being over the drink-drive limit just before he was due to fly.
The pilot was due to fly from Newquay Airport in Cornwall to London Gatwick on Wednesday morning before he was removed for a breath test.
A police source told the BBC that officers were alerted after a fellow crew member became concerned.
A police spokesman confirmed a 48-year-old man was arrested.
'The pilot was unwell'
The flight was then cancelled and passengers faced delays of almost five hours.
