What is with all the fruitloops on flights these days ?

 

A Massachusetts man was arrested for allegedly stabbing a flight attendant in the neck with a broken metal spoon three times during a flight from Los Angeles to Boston on Monday, after attempting to open an emergency exit door, according to the Justice Department.

Francisco Severo Torres, 33, faces one charge of interference and attempted interference with flight crew members and attendants using a dangerous weapon. Torres was arrested at Boston Logan International Airport Monday and will remain detained pending a hearing set for Thursday.

During a United Airlines flight from Los Angeles to Boston, the flight crew saw an alarm that a door in the plane had been disarmed and, after inspection, a flight attendant saw the door’s locking handle had been pushed out of the fully locked position and an emergency slide arming lever had been disarmed, according to the Justice Department.

Do the meth heads not know the doors open inwards?

Even The Donald would struggle to open it with the pressure imbalance in flight.

He'd get it open, but only him...no one else could do it.

Planes need a drop hatch where you can just toss these fuckers mid flight. GTFO and walk!!!

AC needs to stop proselytizing conspiracies to fellow passengers.
