Interesting, I never realized he was on the LAM. He set the fire in the lav, then tried to be a hero by putting it out.
Could he just have peacefully waited until flight reached the destination, then pulled the emergency slide?
A fire onboard an aircraft is one of the most dangerous situations a crew can face. Intentionally setting one is just incredibly stupid.
It appears he might have pulled this stunt TWICE: WCCO: Former Flight Attendant Says He Started Plane Fire Duh, Retardo, you don't think they're going to notice a pattern when the hero FA puts out a second lavatory fire in 5 weeks? It's not as though planes are just flying all over the skies with lavatory fires.
maybe so. appears gruntled is actually a word, if you can translate Scots May gravels round his blather wrench, An' gouts torment him, inch by inch, What twists his gruntle wi' a glunch O' sour disdain, Out owre a glass o' whisky-punch Wi' honest men! --robert burns
