Thankfully it's on the ground. Let's hope everyone's ok.

I take it we don't the motives yet, terrorism/ransom?

SMH update:

Update: An unruly passenger has forced a Virgin Australia flight to be held on the runway at Bali, as Indonesian police get involved.

A Virgin Australia spokesman discounted earlier reports of a hijacking, and said there had rather been a drunken passenger or a medical emergency.

Weird, the squawk code 7500 is to be used specifically in case of Hijacking, in case of emergency 7700 is to be used.

Can someone sponsor that idiot to have a one on one lesson with Mr Bonnie.

Piss poor effort...shouldn't drink if you can't handle your drink.

 

[mmm....shiney!]

How many highly armed police and soldiers does it take to get rid of one drunk bloke in thongs?

 

[goldpelican]

Bogan.

Needs more Collingwood

On a lighter note - maybe he was confused about the whole,... being in the cockpit of a virgin, thing?

*zing*

 

[Nugget]

I say he was drugged to the eyeballs.

I'm very disappointed that the Indonesians didn't lock him up for decades. Hopefully Virgin sue him for the cost of fuel

In Australia, drunk bogans, skanks and other societal scum have learned they can f**k everyone up with impunity. Unsurprisingly the rest of the world is not so lenient.
