Delta Air Lines has settled allegations by a pilot who said the airline ordered her to undergo a psychiatric examination and barred her from flying in retaliation for raising safety concerns to company executives.
The settlement approved Friday ends a long-running dispute in which a federal arbiter agreed with many of the pilot's claims and said Delta failed to show any faults in her flying ability. In 2019, the case threatened to derail former President Donald Trump's choice to lead the Federal Aviation Administration.
