FEBA, I'm with you here, a "nice guy". But sadly in life stuff like this will always happen to the "nice guy". I also agree that it was sad to see the guy in a prison suit, is this the Americans out to show the world how they now police the air as well as everything else!!
What of the rest of the crew, it would be nice to think that the F/O would have stepped in to say something! How many crew are on a B744, over 20 in total and nobody thought to say something. Not saying it's right IF this was as reported, but it must have been able to be kept in-house.
