TEXARKANA, Ark. — A 19-year-old Arkansas man has pleaded guilty to trying to steal a commercial plane so he could fly to Chicago to attend a rap concert.
The Texarkana Gazette reports that Zemarcuis Scott of Texarkana pleaded guilty...
Authorities have said Scott was found July 4 inside the cockpit of an American Eagle jet at Texarkana Regional Airport and that he had hoped to fly to an out-of-state concert.
He has no training as a pilot. Police have said he told investigators he thought piloting the plane would involve little more than pushing buttons and pulling levers.

Heheheheheh...
My wife would have turned more than that shade of pale!
(Good song, by the way, one of my favorites, having been a Drum Corps fan back in the Seventies watching the Anaheim Kingsmen...:)
OT, I just started the Seincast podcast.
I was turning 14 years old in 1999. I have and still am in front of my computer all day on my days off. Years ago it was console, now it’s exclusively PC.
Pitiful kid
Obviously very very low IQ
even considering
Well, good for you. You are probably a better man than I.
I highly doubt that. Independence only has one definition in my book at the moment.
...he told investigators he thought piloting the plane would involve little more than pushing buttons and pulling levers.
and keepin' it real.
No doubt people are different...I look at the way I react to things, and I have no doubt I would have ended up being glued to games at a young age.
I would have given anything to have something like that at that age...I think I would have been lost in those things.
Yeah, push this, pull that, what’re we eating today?
