After being grilled and put on the hot seat they finally caught the guy on camera. Turns out a pilot with a major Regional was on the moving walkway behind me and picked it up, stuffing it in his pocket.
A warrant was issued and the guy was met at ORD as he came off his flight a couple weeks later. I would like to have seen his face when he was met by the police. Never did find out if he's now unemployed.
Just had lunch with a friend from trans states, she was telling me a story about how one of their captains was arrested on the plane in ohare. Story is he picked up an envelope or something full of 700 in cash off the ground at a previous airport. Paid a fine and still has his job. Sounded suspiciously close to this.
