6weeks ago the same thing happened in Australia. The full press article reads:

Mid-air scare: bid to open plane door
March 9, 2006 - 1:20PM

A woman who tried to open a cabin door on a Virgin Blue flight has been arrested in Sydney.

The 33-year-old woman from Gatton, west of Brisbane, was arrested after trying to open the cabin door during the Brisbane to Sydney flight last night, the Australian Federal Police said.

The woman was taken into custody after arriving in Sydney and charged with endangering the safety of an aircraft under the Crimes (Aviation) Act.

She has been bailed and will appear before the Downing Centre Court in Sydney on April 4.

Far less dramatic down there!
No secret agents, bar flights, death plunges, fighter planes, & teary eyed nearly widowed wives. The journo even managed to get GWBs name in there twice!
It was no doubt bigger, better & in technicolour in the land of the brave
