Welcome to the Arizona Buffalo Slayers!: Passengers Stop Flight After 'Drunk' Pilot Sparks Panic

Where did Buffalo Slayers Come From You Ask?

"Well ya see, Norm, it's like this...A herd of buffalo can only move as fast as the slowest buffalo. And when the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first. This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest members.

In much the same way, the human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells...excessive intake of alcohol, as we know, kills brain cells. But naturally it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first. in this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine.

That's why you always feel smarter after a few beers." ~ Cliff Claven

Passengers Stop Flight After 'Drunk' Pilot Sparks Panic

It is normally a moment of cheery reassurance when an airline pilot greets passengers during preparations for take-off. But Alexander Cheplevsky sparked panic on flight Aeroflot 315 when he began to speak. "I don't think there's anyone in Russia who doesn't know what a drunk person looks like," Katya Kushner, one of the passengers, told the Moscow Times, which had a reporter travelling on the flight...

"At first, he was looking at us like we were crazy. Then, when we wouldn't back down, he said 'I'll sit here quietly in a corner. We have three more pilots. I won't even touch the controls, I promise'."

Complete story here.

Sounds like the Russkies need a little TSA training for their pilots...I wonder if they have a Sheriff Joe over there. Think he'll have to spend any time in Tent City?
