No way to treat a pilot

Sunday, 05 Apr, 2007 0

Airline passengers might think the sneaked smoke in the lavatory was no longer an issue, but not for the female passenger who became unruly after a pilot confronted her over the issue. She had a “complete meltdown breakout,” another passenger told the AP.

The woman hit the pilot.

At that point, the flight turned back and landed in San Francisco.

The unruly flier “appeared to be out of her mind. Upset. Belligerent,” said the witness. When the pilot threatened to handcuff her, she hit him in the chest. She was removed from the Delta Air Lines jet flight in San Francisco.

Said the witness:

“I think Delta did the right thing. You don’t hit a pilot on an airplane.”
