http://wbztv.com/local/pilot.crash.plane.2.1706861.html A airtran pilot threatened to crash the plane he was set to fly out of Logan Airport Thursday afternoon, a source has told WBZ NewsRadio 1030. The pilot, who has not been identified, was taken into custody at Logan for allegedly sending an email to his girlfriend in which he said if they did not reconcile their relationship, he was going to crash the plane. The officer was questioned by the FBI at the airport, and taken to a Boston hospital for a psychiatric evaluation. Authorities reportedly found the email on the pilot's phone. A government officials familiar with the case says TSA agents and state police were called to "interview a pilot who indicated that he was unfit for duty. During the interview, the pilot voluntarily agreed to to depart the airport and seek appropriate care." airtran released a statement at 8:35 p.m. saying that one of their pilots was removed for "health-related reasons." Bryan Baldwin, manager of corporate communications for airtran, wrote in an email to WBZ-TV, "At no point were any customers or aircraft in danger. We are working closely with Boston authorities to ensure our crew member receives appropriate medical attention." Baldwin said the company will not provide any additional details. Airport officials confirmed the TSA and FAA are investigating. |
