Airline employee steals plane from Seattle airport, crashes in Puget Sound

He even did it on an island so the fire wouldn't spead. I think it's clear he was trying to not hurt others.

[@deandee8082]

na man, the fighters hand their hands tied, in that rural of an area no way they shoot him down, not at elevation, as he can glide into heavily populated areas, it's too bad they didn't have a psychologist in the room to talk him down, he was throwing out the should i do its left and right, said he was broken, saying oh turn left the fiuggs that going to do? this guy needed someone to talk to him, not talk at him.. good grief, then "ditch it in the water" sheesh

LoL @ Sheriff Paul Pastor at 2:24 "This is someone who did something wrong. did something foolish, and paid for it with their life.".....um yeah... I think someone gave Sheriff Pastor some wrong information here. As far as paying for it with his life, this person was suicidal, which means they bought exactly what they were "paying" for. So the sheriff's little moralizing speech about paying for things comes off making him sound even more unintelligent than he looks.

[@Hjd10]

The Sheriff sounds like he is full of heart doesn't he.... Perhaps he is sad that his staff didn't get chance to pump 50 bullets into him!?

[@Ollyz21]

The sheriff actually said that "He may well have, paid with his life" which is even more absurd that the sheriff thinks there's still a chance he might be alive after nose diving the plane straight into a island causing it to explode and making it fully engulfed in flames.

My brother works for Horizon and was there last night. He said this guy was a perfectly nice guy, didn't seem suicidal, (not that he wasn't) but also that he had been seen very recently watching training videos of how to fly planes. He was an airline mechanic who was "tow trained", which gives an employee basic knowledge of how to power on and taxi aircraft. Crazy.

Mike, you don't know me or anyone else involved. What I told you is true. And if you search, there are also reports calling him a mechanic. He is a officially a "ramp agent", and he is tow trained. These ramp agents also do work on these planes. My brother called him a mechanic. You don't have to believe me, and I don't need your confirmation. What I said is true. I was txting with my bro til around 130 last night. All flights were delayed and the last one left at 1:40am pdt.

Listen to the audio again, please. Rick said he wasn't planning on landing the airplane.

[@susannaCdonovan23]

He didn't say he wouldn't land the plane. Only that he didn't want to get in trouble for what he did. If you only listened to this audio you didn't hear the whole thing.

Sccratlanta Did you listen to the complete audio from Tower to Plane on Mail Online...it's posted on KZbin or internet. Can't get the truth from MSM here in USA.

[@susannaCdonovan23]

Sccratlanta So, you think so huh? They posted it on a UK Website. You must be a puppet for the MSM. The guy was afraid to land as he thought they'd jail him for life. Was especially afraid to land at the military base. Comments about using up fuel fast were recorded just before the crash. He thought the fighter jets were going to hit him. May have been right. No one knows for certain. He said he was a broken guy, and crazy, but made no reference to want to die.

Sccratlanta OK, I just heard a more complete audio. The very first part wasn't included in my first audio video, but when he said he wasn't planning on having to land it, that could be your Red Flag. I'll grant you that. He threw up a few times, said he was light headed. When he only had 760 lbs of fuel he did a barrel roll. Then said he didn't want to land yet. He was clearly not thinking straight. It's a given that he was suffering some PTSD. He wasn't in a good place. It's my opinion that he lost too much fuel and crashed. My final remarks are RIP Richard. Too sad. I'm worried about someone who has PTSD. They're always in on again off again crisis. There needs to be more awareness out there for signs, and not to ignore panic attacks, etc. Family's need to monitor them frequently. Too Sad for words.

Did no-one see the crash or record it, Where is the wreckage, Why isn't it being recorded, I'm skeptical....

Casy Leer paranoia pill, please!

[@casyleer144]

69LOLIN, Just being skeptical, There not even releasing this guy's name, There is something fishy about all this....

[@hopethesky2797]

He made a mistake.....not a folish still a good human. I felt pity to someone like him with broken heart. He said he is a broken person, didnt tell why, but I hope he rest in peace now in God hand💒

Stretched to the point of no turning back A flight of fancy on a windswept field Standing alone my senses reeled A fatal attraction is holding me fast How can I escape this irresistible grasp? Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies Tongue tied and twisted just an earth bound misfit, I
