A German airline scolded its pilots after rumours emerged they were sharing videos of stewardesses in sex acts with colleagues on-board flights.
Condor Airlines, owned by British travel giant Thomas Cook, moved to prevent lewd images of staff being circulated by threatening staff with dismissal and even criminal charges.
Their actions came after it emerged pilots were passing around videos and pictures of the flight hostesses engaging in sex acts with other staff while on-board planes.

The firm said the behaviour could lead to dismissal in an internal website message in June, according the IBTimes.
Adding that it was a ‘criminal’ offence with sentences imposed of up to two years in prison, should the pictures be taken during flights thus endangering passengers.
This behaviour could lead to dismissal and a ‘criminal’ offence if a flight is endangered of up to two years in prison, the firm warned on an internal website in June.
‘We have learned of the following facts: within the circle of the pilots, there are obviously some colleagues secretly taking photos and/or video recordings of the female colleagues who show the affected persons in clear sexual acts,’ the website message said, according to German news magazine Focus.
Condor was launched in 1956 and flies to 80 destinations across Europe, America, Asia and Africa.
MailOnline has approached Thomas Cook for comment.

Meanwhile, a British Airways pilot was suspended last year after pictures emerged of a man performing a sex act while wearing women’s stockings at the controls of a plane.
Colin Glover, 51, denied the photos – which also include a pornographic magazine laying on an aircraft’s controls – were of him.
It is thought the pictures were taken on two separate occasions, on different long-haul flights, and are believed to have been taken at night.
A Condor spokesman: ‘We have been clear with our colleagues that there is no place in our organisation for this kind of inappropriate behaviour.
‘We take any allegations of misconduct very seriously and we continue to investigate in the interests of all of our colleagues.’
