German carrier Condor Airlines has issued an official warning to its pilots after reports emerged that some of the allegedly filmed flight attendants while performing various sex acts.

In a letter accessed by German magazine Focus (h/t International Business Times), the airline warned pilots of “criminal relevance” of “secret video footage and its distribution” and that the pilots could face up to a two-year jail sentence and the loss of their flying credentials.

“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,” read the letter, which was distributed on June 12, but only published by Focus last Friday.

According to Focus, the videos were reportedly filmed while flight attendants were engaged in sex acts on the plane as well as in other locations. Once filmed, the videos were allegedly “handed around like trophies” amongst the pilot circle.

The flight attendants in question, fearing exposure, were too afraid to go to the police, said Focus.

When questioned, the airline said it would be conducting an internal investigation but that it has found no hard copies or evidence that the video footage exists. As a precaution, however, Condor opted to send a company-wide letter about the alleged abuse and its consequences.

According to the Condor Airlines website, the airline serves Anchorage, Austin, Baltimore-Washington, Las Vegas, Minneapolis, New Orleans, Pittsburgh, Portland, San Diego and Seattle in the United States. The airline will also begin flying from Phoenix to Frankfurt starting in May 2018.
