United Airlines replaced a pilot before takeoff on Saturday after she boarded in civilian clothes and told passengers over the intercom that both Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton were liars and that she was getting a divorce, witnesses said.
The airline on Sunday declined to identify the pilot or comment beyond a previous statement apologizing to customers, many of whom left the plane out of concern for their safety.
The flight from Austin, Texas, to San Francisco took off with a new pilot about 90 minutes late, passengers said.
"She shows up dressed like a civilian and asked us to take a vote to see whether we should have her change into her uniform or fly as is," passenger Pam O'Neal told KPIX television upon landing in San Francisco.

Flying from Austin to San Francisco is flying from “weird” to “more weird”. I’m surprised anyone on the flight didn’t take a vote.
Just imagine if she was able to take the controls.
>>pilot...she
‘nuff said.
“What makes you think her husband was a man?” It says partner.”

I hadn’t thought of that! You never know these days.
By this point many passengers began to get nervous. Sensing it, the disgruntled pilot stated, “So I’ll stop, and we’ll fly the plane. Don’t worry. I’m going to let my co-pilot fly it. He’s a man.”
Yeah, I’d have left the plane for my “concern” too
Good lord, what is the matter what these people ?
‘nuff said
Explain your comment please.
It would not surprise me.
“Excuse me, I obviously got on the wrong plane.”
You mean her soon to be ex husband, don’t you?
quota hire?
Jesus H. Christ.
Almost better than that fag flight attendant a couple of years ago that grabbed a beer, popped the emergency chute, slid off the airplane and was captured later that day at his boyfriends house.
Probably has the title "naval aviator" in her background somewhere.
It doesn’t say partner anywhere.
“She shows up dressed like a civilian and asked us to take a vote to see whether we should have her change into her uniform or fly as is,” passenger Pam O’Neal told KPIX television upon landing in San Francisco.
Alarm bells would be going off in my head at that point. Pilot sounds intoxicated or insane.
An airline pilot is not in the armed services or police, so she is a civilian.
Where did you see it say partner? I must have missed it, even looking for it twice.
She doesn't sound drunk.
> It’s not the divorce that caused this. It is whatever liquor she was drinking
<p
Bet it wasn’t a man she was married to either.
