Dopo il caso della hostess fuori di testa ecco un altro caso ancora peggiore (e sempre ripreso da un telefonino)...dimenticavo, si parla di nuovo degli Stati Uniti e questa volta si tratta di un membro della condotta.

Incident: Jetblue A320 near Amarillo on Mar 27th 2012, captain incapacitated by panic attack

By Simon Hradecky, created Tuesday, Mar 27th 2012 18:06Z, last updated Tuesday, Mar 27th 2012 18:10Z
A Jetblue Airbus A320-200, registration N796JB performing flight B6-191 from New York JFK,NY to Las Vegas,NV (USA), was enroute at FL340 about 55nm north of Amarillo,TX (USA) when the captain suffered a panic attack and behaved entirely incoherent forcing the first officer to seek assistance by cabin crew and passengers to overpower the captain, lock him out of the cockpit and have him restrained in the passenger cabin. Another Jetblue pilot flying as passenger assisted the first officer while diverting to Amarillo for a safe landing about 20 minutes later.

The airline confirmed the flight diverted because of a medical condition with the captain. Another captain travelling as passenger on the flight joined the first officer in the cockpit. The ill captain was taken to a local hospital. A replacement aircraft is going to be dispatched to Amarillo to continue the flight.

Passengers reported the captain had visited the bathroom and when returning to the cockpit basically went nuts and screamed about terrorists and bombs on the aircraft knocking the cockpit door. The first officer locked him out of the cockpit and had him overpowered. It took six people to sit on the captain to restrain him. Another pilot on board went to the cockpit to assist the first officer for the diversion.

E su Repubblica.it c'è anche il video:

DOMANDONE PER TUTTI GLI ADDETTI AI LAVORI:
Che diavolo succede da quelle parti tanto che ogni navigante che da di matto inneggia a bombe, mortaretti e trik e trak e attentati?
Ma le nuove FTL sono già entrate in vigore?
Non sarà per caso che qualcuno stia mettendo in scena una "singolare" e pericolosa protesta contro le nuove usuranti FTL?
O gira qualcosa di sconosciuto da quelle parti?
 
Semplice attacco di panico, sembra una cosa assurda ma può capitare. In questo caso fa scalpore perchè si tratta del comandante del volo.

Due in così poco tempo? A memoria non ricordo tanti altri simili casi però.
Penso che la FAA dovrebbe iniziare ad investigare. C'è qualcosa di più profondo secondo me...
Per arrivare ad avere un simile comportamento (panico a parte) significa che hai iniziato a volare già in condizione di non farlo.
 
Fantastico quando la didascalia del video di Repubblica parla di "piloti d'emergenza"... mi fa venire in mente l'aereo più pazzo del mondo...!

Si dovrebbe rapportare al numero dei lavoratori nel settore, parliamo comunque di casi isolati ed infinitesimali statisticamente. Poi, senza volere fare diagnosi, se si tratta di ansia da stress la cosa puó esplodere senza particolari preavvisi, ed è difficile da diagnosticare se non sei soggetto a visite specialistiche o, peggio, magari non racconti esattamente alcuni sintomi particolari (sensazione di svenimento è quella più evidente: ma spesso la attribuisci ad altri fattori contingenti).

giusto,
però anche da noi ultimamente ne sono successe un po'.anche se non se ne parla.
sicuramente i fattori scatenanti sono molti e andrebbe fatto uno studio scientifico e statistico,ma di sicuro il tipo di vita e di lavoro non aiuta.
 
Ultima modifica:
che stia girando un nuovo tipo di pasticchetta tra i naviganti Usa ?
Dopotutto questo e' impazzito dopo essere andato al bagno
 
Un aggiornamento da CNN News

The JetBlue captain whose midair meltdown led to an emergency landing has been charged with interfering with a flight crew.

According to an affidavit, Clayton Osbon on Tuesday left the cockpit of Flight 191 from New York to Las Vegas after behaving oddly. The co-pilot locked him out of the cockpit, and crew and passengers subdued Osbon in the cabin. The Airbus A320 was diverted to Amarillo, Texas.

Osbon, 49, has been suspended pending an investigation and is receiving medical treatment, the airline said on Wednesday.

che brutta cosa.
poverino
 
A parte il caso del pilota Ryanair che aveva da perso da poco il figlio (e per gli psicologi mondiali pare sia il trauma più brutto che un essere umano possa sopportare) anche il caso postato da Speedbird riguarda flight crew del Nord America.
E' vero che la loro aviazione è su scala maggiore rispetto a quella europea...però
 
JetBlue "Meltdown" Pilot Charged, Allegedly Got Pretty Nihilistic In The Cockpit
http://gothamist.com/2012/03/28/jetblue_pilot_charged_allegedly_got.php
"The JetBlue pilot who had a meltdown on a flight from JFK to Las Vegas yesterday and had to be restrained has been charged with interfering with the flight crew. According to an affidavit obtained by the Associated Press, captain Clayton Osbon told his co-pilots that "things don't matter" during a Las Vegas-bound flight Tuesday. Osbon then allegedly told the plane's first officer that "we're not going to Vegas" and began giving a sermon. Sources tell ABC News Osbon was also "flipping switches in the cockpit and appearing confused."
Fortunately, he the other crew members coaxed him out of the cockpit and locked the door, and after some further drama, Osbon was restrained by a group of passengers. "I was actually the one that took him down," passenger David Gonzalez, a former NYC corrections office, tells ABC News. "He was pinned against the door. I was afraid he was going to knock down the door. I was able to put a choke hold on him. I was able to get him weak from cutting his wind pipe."
Osbon could face up to 20 years in prison for the incident, and he's been suspended from his duties pending further investigation. The pilot, who is currently hospitalized, is expected to undergo toxic screening. ABC reports that this could include "blood counts to make sure he has no infection, vital signs to see if his temperature is within normal ranges and a neurological exam that might include a scan of the brain."
Possible causes of the meltdown include a brain tumor, a toxic reaction to infection, or reaction to medication. "The JetBlue pilot's behavior is much more than a simple panic attack, which might occur as a result of a phobia or panic disorder," Una McCann, director of the Anxiety Disorders Clinic at Johns Hopkins Medical Institution, tells ABC. "A brain tumor could do this. They will also investigate things that can impact the central nervous system, like drugs. Drugs prescribed over the counter, and, in particular sleep deprivation, can turn someone over the edge.""
