A pilot in South Africa made a hasty emergency landing after discovering a highly venomous cobra hiding under his seat.

The theory is it found its way on board before Erasmus and his passengers took off at the start of their trip from the town of Worcester in the Western Cape province, where Cape Cobras are usually found in South Africa
