  1. Hillary Clinton in the cockpit.

  2. This was just like the attempted hijacking of Federal Express Flight 705 on April 7, 1994.

  3. Democrats will release him on mental health get out of jail card

  4. Nothing more cruel and selfish than people wanting to off themselves but trying to take others with them in the process. Can’t believe he really tried to do it like that. Reminds me of those school sh****ers who go and off everyone else before putting one on themselves n the end. So infuriating 🤦🏾‍♀️Thank God these people are safe and hope he gets the help he needs. Clearly not well

  5. I want to know his religious convictions….is he a convert?????

  6. False it was E175 If you're gonna be a reporter at least spread the truth

  7. Not all is as it seems….

    Mr. Emerson, according to interviews with flight attendants, walked from the cockpit to the rear of the passenger compartment on his own, sat down and then requested that he be handcuffed.

    There are a number of YouTube content creators that specialize in aviation news commenting on this incident.

    One I might recommend is Juan Brown, whose ‘Blancolirio’ channel content is well respected within the aviation community.

    As this incident seems to have resulted in a rather uneventful diversion to another airport and human factors were involved, details may be sketchy until all those directly involved are interviewed and cockpit recordings are reviewed.

    Juan has done an excellent job gathering information from reliable sources concerning this incident.

    Stay Well…

  8. No airline can ever guarantee one of their pilots won't go German and burrow into a mountain … and its only going to get worse as social behavior continues to deteriorate.

  9. Imagine if he was from the middle east , what would have happened ?

  10. expect to see more of this. All those people that got vaxed and boosted are losing their minds

  11. The pilot, was a jump seat pilot. Which means if the plane went down, he wasn’t on there records as being there. If he shut down the engines, maybe the plane would glide for about 30 minutes or so that the voice recorders would be taped over before the plane went down in a crash. Even though he would have died, someone would have benefited from his life insurance policy. It happened on a fedEx flight years ago. So everything makes perfect sense.
