Jilted jetBlue Pilot Allegedly Threatens Suicide; Is Relieved of Duty
The news is still unfolding about what apparently rendered a JetBlue Pilot Unfit for Duty, including a story out of BOSTON: JetBlue Pilot Threatens to Crash Plane after take-off from Logan Airport, as well as unsubstantiated reports that the distraught pilot — allegedly jilted by a female acquaintance — had a gun confiscated. There is also speculation that the threats of suicide may be a rumor and the pilot was actually removed for health reasons.
An official spokesperson for jetBlue says that at no point were any customers or aircraft in danger.
What should I do if my soon to be ex-husband has been threatening suicide and he is a Captain for a major airline. He also keeps a loaded gun on his bedstand at night, and has a license to carry it concealed when he walks our dogs in the woods. He has been seeing a psychiatrist for over a year but he still tells me he thinks of suicide all the time. He has major anger management issues which is why I left him after 25 years of living in fear. I found a suicide note in 2006 locked away, and he told me that he informed his psychiatrist 5 months ago about his intricate plan to kill himself, which included he buy Depends diapers and a pair of slacks one size larger so he would not be found ‘messy’.His plan was to sit in his car that he would rig for suffication.
