and go down the slide.

What would a Land Surveyor do?

Grab a beer and go around with vise grips ripping pipes and rebars out of the ground?

Actually it was 2 beers.

So you best grab up all the mag nails or better yet pound about a dozen mags through a hub-cap shiner. 🙂

Hard to say what the survey equivalent would be, but monetarily, I'm sure grabbing a couple of beers and picking up the total station and throwing it into traffic wouldn't exceed the cost of opening the emergency door and sliding down the chute of an airliner.

According to his mother, it was "just a small-meltdown". She must have been taking lessons from Colton Harris-Moore's mother.

I think it would have been better to have called airport security about an unruly passenger. That way, the passenger goes to jail instead of the flight attendant. Of course, this may have just been his way of quitting.

Apparently the passenger somehow gashed his head with the overhead compartment door but it happened before they took off.

I imagine he stewed about it throughout the flight and this and other past frustrations led him to this action which was pretty stupid.

Personally I think they threw the wrong person in jail. You would think the airline would've excused him from the flight after he received a head injury?

I'll bet

I'll bet that he had a bunch of cellmates that had long ago given up the hope of ever being able to date a flight attendant.

Maybe so, but, he'll enjoy it. Did you see his "partner" in the news story?

Crew Chief meltdown.

What would a Land Surveyor do?

I'm not going to say who, and I'm not going to say where.

BUT, he'd get drunk, come back in at night and shoot the place up.
Not people, but computers and walls and such.

Never to be heard from again.

:coffee:

True story. East Texas and about this time of year cutting in the kudzu all day. New guy on the crew for a couple of days. He went back to bring up the water jug and that is the last we saw of him.

He walked out 1/2 mile to the truck, drove it to the motel to get his things, then to the bus station and went, I assume back home.

He left the keys in an envelope with the station and they called our motel. The owner of the motel went and got the keys for us.

We were facing a very long walk back but fortunately a logger was traveling down the road to town and we hitched a ride.

He never said a word and he was a good worker for the several days up to this point. Some just cannot handle the work.

That was the last time the new guy got information on where the spare keys to the vehicles were located.

See? See what happens when you let them have water?

Most recent word on this is that the police have taken the passenger list and are questioning folks who may have seen the entire incident.

Apparently, someone who had a front row seat said none of what the flight attendant describes ever happened. So the last word is still to be heard.
