Is this arrest going to affect the production output of Chief Pilots?

Yeah I'm going to have to change my motto now that it is tainted!

So... I'm unclear, with the balls to the wall, did he retain the control stick?

Or did it become a non-towered field?

Some things just shouldn't be done by amateurs.

I nominate the United Captain yesterday at ORD whose PA was 4-5 minutes long complaining about how it wasn't his fault they were late and it was unusual that the airport was allowing departures and arrivals on the same runway....

.....all on Tower frequency.

Honorable mention to his FO who should have stopped him no later than the 20 second mark.

Around what time was it? Sounds epic enough to try and find the tape. I'm assuming 9R?

Not to pile on, but I nominate the UAL Captain with the truck nuts hanging from his roller bag, strolling through MSP.

F/O was walking about 20 feet behind him...
