“But the pilot has opened the cockpit and come out...”
Well, he has to come out to take a leak when the plane is airborne, and he will come out when the plane’s at the gate. What’s the diff? Besides, pilots can be armed, also co-pilots. This captain did the right thing!
Fair enough, I thought in the days we live in having the captain of the plane brawling on the floor with a drunk, whilst thoroughly satisfying on many levels, would nonetheless be regarded as a bit of a security compromise.
Obviously not.
