Clayton Osbon was kidnapped on active duty pending an incident, a representative of JetBlue Airways Ellison, says Steinberg. Passengers wrestled to the ground after the Osbon strange diatribe, as a pilot to remove it from the cab and took command of the flight from New York on Tuesday morning.
Passengers first noticed something was wrong when Osbon ran out of the cab and tried to make their way in a busy bathroom. Captain colleagues tried to calm him when he became more nervous, pray for him on the back of the plane, while ensuring that it is not for the control of the aircraft.
Then he ran down the aisle cabin, talking about the bomb, shouting that the plan would be "They're going to kill him!" He urged passengers to pray confused.
"Nobody knew what to do, because he is the captain of the aircraft," said Don Davis, owner of Ronkonkoma, New York manufacturer of wireless broadband access, which went to Sin City at a conference of industrial safety.
"You're not just going to jump in and attack the captain," said Davis.
But the four men were the decision is just that, with longer seat belts and cuffs zip tie to stop and contact Osbon ground for more than 20 minutes, while the second pilot of the service and who was on board the plane landed in Amarillo , Texas.
CEO and President Dave Barger told NBC "Today" show that the Osbon is a "great professional" that he "personally knew" for years. Osbon was a pilot with JetBlue in 2000.
There is nothing in the record master, showing that there would be no flight risk, Barger said Wednesday.
It was not clear whether Osbon face civil or criminal liability for the failure of flights.
"Obviously, he had a kind of emotional or mental disorder," said Tony Antolino, safety cage, which sat in row 10 aircraft and walked to the driver when he tried to re-enter the cab.
"It was almost delirious," said Antolino after arriving in Las Vegas with her husband Rick Amarillo International Airport, about six hours after schedule.
Josh Redick, who was sitting near the middle of the aircraft, the captain said, seemed "angry" and "poured out of Afghanistan and the soul, and al-Qaeda."
Elton Stafford, who lives across the street from Osbon in Richmond Hill, Georgia, said he was shocked by the explosion captain.
"Clayton's a good guy. I like to have fun, loves the outdoors. He loves people," Stafford said Tuesday. "It's kind of neighbors that everyone wants."
The airline described the incident as a "medical situation" with the captain of JetBlue Airways Flight 191 from New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport. The company's management said that he was taken to hospital.
Explosion occurred a week after the flight of American Airlines attendant was taken out of the plane for trips to the 9/11 and fears that the plan will not. John Cox, a consultant on aviation security and a former airline pilot, said he could recall only two or three cases over the past 40 years as a commercial pilot became mentally incapacitated during the flight.
Schonzeit Gabriel, who was sitting in the third row, said the captain said that he could be a bomb on board.
"He started yelling about the al-Qaeda, and possibly a bomb on a plane and Iraq and Iran, as we all go down," said Amarillo Globe Schonzeit-News.
"A group of us instinctively just jumped up and grabbed him and put him on the ground," said Antolino.
The Federal Aviation Administration said the pilot shut the cabin.
Captain of the rest of JetBlue, who was a passenger on the plane went into the cockpit and took over the rights of Osbon before landing in Amarillo, the company said in a statement.
Customers and crew of "just did a great job," said Barger JetBlue. "It was a real team effort at an altitude of 35,000 feet."
Osbon was taken to hospital, the company said.
The FBI is coordinating a survey at the airport police, the Amarillo Police, FAA and Administration of Transportation Safety, said spokeswoman Lydia Maas Agency in Dallas. She declined to comment on the arrests.
Airlines and the FAA strongly recommend that pilots say that if they think that a security threat, even if it means contradicting the orders of the captain, said Cox. Experts in aviation security have studied several cases, when the first employees moved to the more experienced captains with tragic consequences.
Undisciplined drivers, crews and passengers violated the flights in the past.
A few hours after the rupture of Osbon, the crew on board the flight to the U.S. Airways flight from Charlotte, North Carolina, Fort Myers, Fla., was devastating to a woman passenger. Lee County Port Police spokeswoman Victoria Moreland said the passenger flight was arrested Tuesday afternoon, but declined to elaborate.
Earlier this month, American Airlines flight took over the PA system attendant on the flight to Chicago and talked for about 15 minutes of 11 September and the security of its plan, saying: "I am not responsible for the crash," according to several passengers.
The passengers fought the stewardess in the chair, and the aircraft was based in Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport, flight attendants were hospitalized.
In 2008, Air Canada pilot was forcibly removed from the Toronto-London flight, restrained and sedated, after a nervous breakdown during the flight.
FAA may review medical information about the Osbon - in fact, the approval of the pilot is safe. All drivers who operate on scheduled airlines should have a first-class medical certificate. Certificates must be renewed every six months to a year, depending on the age of the driver. To receive a certificate, the pilot must undergo a medical examination by a doctor appointed by the FAA expert who asks questions about the psychological state of the driver. Pilots are required to disclose all the physical and psychological conditions and medications.
Charlie Restivo, who was heading to a conference in Las Vegas, security, and sat in the fourth row of the plane, said he thought it was clear that the pilot suffered a medical episode.
"I do not think that when he got up this morning, that is what he is going to do," he said. "Unfortunately, I just think it's happened to him."
