Next time a flight crew complains about going through security I'm sure the smurfs at the TSA will bring this one up.
 
"At no time was the security or safety of our customers or crewmembers at risk."


This couldn't be farther from the truth, but nice spin though.

The initial customer was in danger from getting slapped down, along with everyone that was looking at an open door to the tarmac...along with those ground workers down below.

I must admit, a good way to go out. BRAVO!

The FO on the flight attempted to tackle him before he popped the slide, to prevent any rampers from getting hurt by this idiot. Said FO then blocked access to the galley, and made sure the remaining customers deplaned safely while the CA started making calls. So, no passengers got to look at an open door to the tarmac.
 
Let's not forget the REAL HERO....I give the guy 5 points for stealing the beer and 4 for the cops finding him having a love -fest, but minus 6 for originality:


Eastern Pilot `Fed Up,` Stalks Off Plane


July 24, 1986|United Press International
ATLANTA

A ``fed up`` Eastern Airlines senior pilot walked off a scheduled flight telling the passengers aboard that he was ``sick and tired`` of delays and waiting and that he was ``hanging it up,`` a report said today.
Eastern Flight 141 was waiting to take off from Hartsfield-Atlanta International Airport for Tampa late Tuesday, with a stop in Pensacola, when the incident occurred, the Tampa Tribune reported today.
Numerous problems, including a galley door that refused to close properly, a fuel shortage, and the late arrival of the pilot, hampered the DC-9`s departure, originally scheduled for 5:35 p.m.
Fred Fox, a photographer for the Tribune who was aboard the flight, said the pilot chatted normally while taxiing to the runway. He welcomed passengers aboard, identified himself, and apologized for the delays.
But as the pilot got behind a long line of jets waiting for take-off, his tone changed. ``He said, `It looks like we`re going to be about 15 to 20 minutes just sitting out here, so just bear with us,``` Fox said. ``Then there was a pause, then the first thing he said was, `You know, there`s a saying that when you die you have to change in Atlanta.`
Then there was another pause and he said: `Well, I`m fed up. I`m sick and tired of the delays, tired of the waiting, so you can have it. I`m hanging it up. This flight is my last flight.```
Eastern spokesman Glenn Parsons in Miami refused to identify the pilot -- who was grounded pending review of the incident -- or any details about his service with the airline, citing his rights to privacy. Fox said the pilot identified himself as ``Ray`` but his last name was unintelligible.
``This was an extremely, extremely unique situation. We`re talking about 4,000 plus pilots, a pretty large community,`` Parsons said. ``Presently, he is off flight status. That means he is not able to fly an Eastern Airlines airplane .... This is a significant departure from standard practices.`` The pilot, for whatever reason, came to a point in his life where he decided that he needed to make a change, Parsons said.
Departure was delayed almost two hours while Eastern assigned another pilot to the flight, Parsons said.
As the jet taxied back to the gate, Fox said, a passenger quipped, ``It looks like Ray has made his last flight already.``

Freak-quent Flier Parody

Parody – to the tune of Sit Down You’re Rocking the Boat (from Guys and Dolls...ironically...)


I dreamed last night I was on a flight from Pittsburgh
And by some chance I had brought my carry-on
But as I stood, someone hollered “park it, lady!”
But we passengers don’t know right from wrong.

And I heard a voice say sit down, sit down we’re taxiing slow
When the seatbelt sign goes off, that’s your cue it’s safe to go
But I’m a typical New Yorker and ignored the words of that ‘lil mo-fo
Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down we’re taxiing slow.

And as I laughed as I stood up in the aisle
a flighty attendant started givin’me what-for
I grabbed my bag and it bumped him on noggin
That’s the moment he flipped out n’ grabbed the door!

On the PA he said sit down, sit down I’m popping the chute
Grabbing myself two beers, goin’ home and pushing some po0p.
‘Cause the lady won’t say she’s sowwy - so I’m down the slide like a whiny yout’
Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down
Sit down I’m popping the chute

He did all that for B scale wages?

I'm glad you brought this up. It is possibly the funniest part of the whole story. The FO 'attempting' to tackle this fierce and frosted little guy with his fists full of Beer ..... :laugh:

I want video.
 
Put me down for $100 for the legal defense fund as well.

A hero to every FA who has suffered abuse at juvenile pax antics!

Tonight, I drink a toast to this guy!
