Spilled coffee caused jet plunge

A co-pilot who spilled coffee on the instrument panel of the Serbian president's plane and then hit an emergency button while trying to mop it up caused the jet to plunge, an investigation showed on Tuesday. President Tomislav Nikolic was forced to abort an official visit to the Vatican on Friday after one of the engines of the plane carrying him to Rome shut down. Serbia's civil aviation authority blamed the incident on the co-pilot.
