Flight attendant on Chicago-bound flight talks of 9/11 and plane crash: passengers

Source: Chicago SunTimes

A flight attendant on a Dallas-to-Chicago American Airlines flight went on the plane’s public address system, alluded to the Sept. 11 attacks and told passengers the plane was going to crash, passengers say.

The incident happened while the plane was preparing to take off from Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport and fly to Chicago.

Bethany Christakos of Dallas, seated toward the rear of the plane, said passengers started “freaking out” as one of the flight attendants gave a rambling, 15-minute speech on the plane’s public-address system.

“She said, ‘I’m not responsible for this plane crashing,’” Christakos said.

Another passenger, Brad LeClear of Fox Lake, said he helped restrain the flight attendant, whom he said acted oddly and mentioned something about 9/11.

“She is obviously sick and needs to take her medicine,” LeClear said.
