JetBlue pilot warns against Iran threat before his meltdown
NBC News services: Two passengers aboard JetBlue Flight 191 recounted Wednesday the dramatic and bizarre situation of the plane's captain leaving the cockpit, acting erratically and eventually being subdued. The captain began yelling about an unspecified threat linked to Iran, Iraq and Afghanistan. "They're going to take us down, they're taking us down, they're going to take us down. Say the Lord's prayer, say the Lord's prayer," the captain screamed, according to a passenger. The captain, identified as 49-year-old Clayton Osbon then became increasingly agitated. Several passengers grabbed the pilot, tackled him to the ground and sat on him.
The disoriented captain, is charged with interfering with a flight crew and now getting medical care.
