So I'm gathering the moral of the story is "Divert in the state you were over when the incident occurred?"
Would there have been arrests if they had diverted to Omaha? |

Your Captain continued on with these thugs in the back? I’m literally speechless. I’m never one to second guess PIC decision making, but you have got to be fuqing kidding me. And the FO can’t speak up and say ‘uh Cap? No way’. This isn’t the press you need right now...smh

None of us were there so let’s all defer judgement. I’m pretty confident none of our captains would have let the assailant continue on after the diversion. Arrest or not and spirit station or not we still decide who stays or goes as the captain. You can walk the rest of the way as far as I’m concerned.
Also, any time any of us have had law enforcement meet us at the destination the locals have always handled it no matter what states sky we were over. I think we are missing a lot of facts and relying on poor reporting on this case. Let’s keep that in mind. |
Against my better judgement I just watched the video, and I'm sorry, lack of facts or not, I would not let that assailant back on my plane. He punched repeatedly, violently and rapidly. And over what? A verbal argument? (This is where the lack of facts comes in, I suppose.)
I'm by no means a "tough guy" but there's no way I'd let that guy back on if I knew at the time that's what he did. And the fact that there is blood on the seats is good enough for me, "All the facts" or not. |

You sound as tough as me, how does a tough guy handle this?
