Plane stolen, crashes near SeaTac Airport

Yeah, I don't think taking off and flying are the hard parts .... landing would be tricky but that wasn't really a concern for this guy ...

 

ha! Let's hope he doesn't take us all down with him! (a little thread humor)

 

This article says the guy was financially stressed because after several years he was till not making $15 per hour:
Remains of airline worker who stole, crashed plane found on island in Puget Sound - NY Daily News

Seriously? My kid was working a summer job as a utility/maintenance guy's helper (where my wife works) and he got $15/hr. My boy is 16 and in HS! Damn people are getting screwed all over. There has to be a fundamental change in workers' living conditions. Step one, people need to stop rooting for the king (owners/rich titans).

 

And it isn't like Washington is a "right to work" state. But I do know the major airlines have expanded their reliance on the "feeder" airlines like Horizon, United Express, Delta Connect and American Eagle that pay far less, and likely aren't unionized.

 

At least the guy who stole the Alaska Air plane wasn’t trying to use it as a weapon.

Its almost like the NCAA allegory, "the Muslims are going to have to pay for the crimes by the American citizens!!" [Sorry for prior inflammatory description]

 

That's one sturdy home!

 

Where the hell did you come up with the idea that guy was a white supremacist?

 

Fixed. Apologies to the misidentified and inflammatory description.

 

I never made $15 an hour at a newspaper job.

 

Oh my ...I used to cover wrestling matches in that town...
