This actually pisses me off. In this day and age NO ONE except a select few should have security clearance to enter the cockpit at any time that the plane can be put into operation.

This plane could have hit one or more planes full of people.

My hope is that security clearance changes dramatically starting tonight.

A Horizon plane... a 2007 BOMBARDIER DHC-8-402 (twin engine, 70 seats). Stolen/crashed by a Horizon mechanic.

Audio from aircraft, “A lot of people care about me, and I’d like to apology to all, I’m just a broken guy.

You wonder how many jihad inclined mechanics are out there that could have the same opportunity.

“My hope is that security clearance changes dramatically starting tonight. “

It won’t. Democrats know that means excluding illegal aliens. Even after 9/11 and you were being strip searched at the front gate, Denver airport found more than 100 illegal aliens working the ramp.

CNN not covering. Bashing Trump is more important.

There are a very few reports online, but just tape running on the news networks.

“Audio from aircraft, “A lot of people care about me, and I’d like to apology to all, I’m just a broken guy.”

If accurate, get ready for a new challenge meme. Given the state of the national psych ward, people will start competing to try and one-up the last terrificly dramatic suicide.

On the up side, it will be mostly democRats.

So true. If you ever fly out of Sea-Tac airport you see all the muslims that work for the airlines. It’s uncomfortable. And even more so now.

Per the LiveATC transcript, he only took off with 350gallons of fuel. Don’t know how long he was up, but at full throttles, that is around 60 minutes?, maybe 90?
