Now you have a weapon that Italian Customs comes across, which was disassembled, then you a captain, with a meager amount of intelligence, with a loaded weapon ready to fire, that actually fires his weapon in the cockpit. Now which one of the two is most deserving of the Charles Darwin award?
I had that USAir Captain as a JSer five years ago. He was one of the most professional pilots I'd ever met and was surprised to find out he was involved in that incident. I think he got his job back after many months of investigation as it was found to be an accident and not his being careless. I'm sure someone on here has the definitive answer on this and hope they can chime in....
