Default Attendant Helps Land Plane After Pilot Is Sedated, Restrained During Breakdown

In the middle of the ocean is not a good place to go wacko.

That' sad. Glad everyone was safe.

It happens, from pilots to presidents. Unfortunate that the pilot will probably never fly again. If he was a president, he could still get re-elected.

He probably got his copy of the latest RyanAir charity calendar.

Enjoy, don't start babbling.

Now, can you still articulate clearly...?

According to the paper, the airline has reacted to the brouhaha by stating: "Ryanair will continue to defend the right of girls to take their clothes off, particularly when it is for charity."

Ryanair CEO Michael O'Leary has been infamous for his machismo in the past. At a press conference in Düsseldorf earlier this year, his local spokeswoman choked on her glass of water as her boss announced that his company's planned trans-Atlantic flights would include €10 economy class seats and a business class complete with "beds and blowjobs." To avoid a PR meltdown, the company's marketing department later clarified that "beds and blowjobs" was just English slang for luxury service.

No, that's not why. It's all about the money.

Oh, and I think that flight attendant needs to be considered for the airline's flight school. Good job she did.
