Deadly Cobra in Cockpit Forces Emergency Landing in South Africa

A South African pilot made an emergency landing after discovering a cobra slithering under his seat mid-air. The plane was carrying four others, as well as the snake, which was spotted by the pilot at 11,000ft in the air. A bite from a Cape cobra is lethal and can kill someone in just 30 minutes. The pilot calmly informed the passengers and made an emergency landing in the city of Welkom. The snake is still missing. The pilot has been hailed a hero for his "great airmanship."
