Flight Diverted Over ‘Alien’ Passenger

Skywest Airlines gave their passengers a bit more entertainment than they had bargained for on a flight from Montana to Salt Lake City on May 2.

One of the 50 passengers started banging on the cockpit door, claiming he was an alien and needed to fly the plane.  

He was subdued by the other passengers and the plane was diverted to Idaho Falls, where he was taken into custody, charged and later jailed.

Tests revealed that the passenger was not under the influence of drugs or alcohol. There is also no truth to the rumour that his name was Mork.
