Playboy playmate Victoria 'Viky' Xipolitakis was invited, mid-flight, into the cockpit of a plane by two Argentinian pilots last week. The airline has since found out, and fired both pilots.

The 29-year-old model, who typically poses for the Greek edition of Playboy, was on a flight from Buenos Aires to Rosario, which is in central Argentina, on June 22 when the pilots let her take control of the passenger flight, according to Daily Mail. The two pilots, Patricio Zocchi and Federico Soaje, let her remain in the cockpit for the entire flight, even while they were landing.

Xipolitakis shared selfies of her and the pilots on Twitter, which is where the evidence first came from. It is unclear whether or not the plane was in the air at the time the photos were taken, but Xipolitakis claims she flew the plan. Either way, the pilots look happy, as if there's nothing wrong.

Austral Airlines has admitted that there was a major breach of safety regulations when they allowed her to fly the plane, especially since there were 36 other passengers aboard. The company released a statement following the incident, saying that the pilots have been fired, along with other staff that was responsible for the incident.

The airlines went on to say that the passenger, Xipolitakis, will be "initiated under Article 190 of the penal code for putting the flight's safety at risk." She has been banned from flying with this airline for the next five years.

During her time in the cockpit, Xipolitakis took six videos, according to Fox News Latino. These videos have been leaked, and in one of them you can hear a pilot telling her to take control of the plane for some of the takeoff. "You sure?" she asks. "Nothing could happen?"

At one point, she even is heard yelling at one of the pilots for looking at his cell phone during the take off. "Put down that phone this instant because you're making me panic," she said.

When news broke, she took to Twitter to apologize. She said, in Spanish, that "she was sorry for the pain she had caused and that it was not an example of her character."

Many of the passengers from the flight have filed lawsuits against the airline and pilots.
