Checked in at 0200 for my trip today & saw Capt K. getting off the bus (something didn't look right). Went through bag screen & turned around & Holy #^%$, what happend to you? Bushwacked in Paris, he replied. Both eyes blackened, bandage around head, literally beat the crap out of him. FO on trip said he was alone. Stay together guys. Godspeed on your recovery Capt. He is one of the good guys.

Why is this guy still working/flying?

He was just coming home, he did not operate the trip. My assumption is that the event occured Fri/Sat night.

anyone know what hotel he was staying at, or what area the event happened?

Hope he has a speedy recovery!

no, his wife was waiting for him, (just inside screening & security was there). I did not ask details. maybe FCIF later?

Naturally, we hear about it here, instead of from the company...

Alright,, So he got a little scratch on his head. Big deal. You fedex guys need to get back to discussing the really important issues like ,,, practice vacation bids and if(and what kind) of catering goes on the airplane.

I heard he was at the Paris branch of F-Street

Oh, you mean the James Joyce....
