AMARILLO, Texas (AP) - The Federal Aviation
Administration says the captain of a JetBlue flight to Las Vegas was
exhibiting "erratic behavior" before other crew members decided to lock
him out of the cockpit.
Passengers say the captain
became disruptive when he couldn't get back inside, and was yelling
about a bomb. A passenger tells CNN that the pilot still inside the
cockpit used the PA system to urge passengers to restrain the captain,
which they did.
The flight from New York
was diverted to Amarillo, Texas, where the captain was taken for medical
treatment. A passenger says most of the people on board were "shocked
and confused" by what was going on. He says authorities interviewed each
of the passengers after the flight landed.
The FBI says it's investigating, along with other federal agencies and local police.
