This guy's a private pilot, his defense is that he was just "screwing around" and that he wanted to say goodbye to his daughter, since she was in one of the planes.

Goodbyyyeeeeee pilot's license.

He could have killed a lot of people. Hope his charges reflect that.

I always thought all communication was done in English.

Interesting how easy it seems for him to mess with it though, with some more preparations that could have gone another way.
Although pilots are good on picking up on it.

And when the passengers woke up the plane was missing, and the pilot was never heard from again!

...anyway, that's how I lost my pilot's license.

so die hard 2 was just a prank?

"Estaba boludeando" he said when he got caught. That basically means "its just a prank bro".

How can you be this much of an idiot? Was he trying to crash the plane his daughter was in or something? (btw psychological studies say he ISN'T insane)
