Authorities say the man is Jerry Darnell of Carlinville, Illinois. He's been charged with failing to have proper flying credentials.
Darnell?
Here's the latest on Darnell. They're checking to see if he even has a valid pilot's license. Seems he doesn't have a driver's license due to past convictions for drunken driving.
Move along. Nothing to see here -- REALLY -- except what looked like a drunken and/or mentally-disturbed, middle-aged, balding white guy. Sheesh. Glad he didn't hurt anyone else.
Yep.
Kind of a common name, but not as comman as Smith and Jones.
