<p>He was stood down by the airline after it was alerted to messages he sent to a WhatsApp group stating he was “probably going to kill myself”, according to The Sun.</p>
<p>The newspaper reported he has since told bosses he is not suicidal.</p>
<p>Concerns about the mental health of flight crew have been raised since a Germanwings airliner was deliberately flown into a mountain by co-pilot Andreas Lubitz in March 2015, killing all 150 people on board.</p>
<p>An easyJet spokeswoman said: <em>“We can confirm that the pilot was stood down from flying several days ago, in line with our procedures, while we investigate. We have offered support in the meantime.</em></p>
<p><em>“The safety and well-being of our passengers and crew is the airline’s highest priority.”</em></p>
<p>She added: <em>“We offer support through an employee assistance programme, pilot peer support programme and we have a full occupational health provision across our UK and European network.</em></p>
<p><em>“We always take steps to ensure that easyJet’s pilots are fully fit to operate.</em></p>
<p><em>“All pilots are licensed under aviation regulators and as part of this are subject to extensive regular medical assessments which include mental health assessments.”</em></p>
