I watched this with horror and disgust on the CH9 news yesterday.
That the current excuse of a "medical episode" is being used by the
'woke' reporting of these types of increasing incidents—both in the
air and on the ground—indicates our increasing fear of upsetting
these sorts of nutcases. Why? Surely we should be imposing the
most stringent penalties, including jail, on such people.
Passengers reported the woman was convinced someone had stolen
her phone and was allegedly banging on the flight deck door and
swearing at other passengers. As a frequent air traveller (in more
socially responsible times) I can fully understand how unsettling and
frightening this would've been for all the passenger and aircrew.
This woman
must be detained in a mental health unit for an indefinite
period—if not jail.
There's an interesting Civil Aviation Safety Authority site
HERE that covers
disorderly aircraft passengers.
