Ik kan me niet voorstellen waarom je zoiets doet op de WC van een vliegtuig?! Het enige wat ik kan bedenken is aandacht of een statement of zo.

Jet Diverted After Man Hangs Self in Bathroom
Thursday, February 09, 2006
DENVER — A Miami man apparently hanged himself in an airplane lavatory during a United Airlines flight from Washington, D.C., to Los Angeles, and the plane was diverted to Denver after his body was discovered, police said Thursday.
The Denver medical examiner's office identified the man as Gerald Georgettis, 56, and said his body was found on Wednesday. Medical examiner's spokeswoman Michelle Weiss-Samaras said an autopsy was planned.
Police detective Virginia Lopez said no other passengers were ever in danger.
"Right now, everything leads us to believe the male involved did commit suicide," she said.
United officials did not immediately return a call.
Last month, the El Paso County coroner ruled that a Sacramento, Calif., woman had committed suicide on an America West flight between Cleveland and Phoenix by overdosing on morphine. That flight made an unscheduled landing Jan. 6 in Colorado Springs after Stephanie Marson was found unconscious in her seat.

Man who drove SUV into dealership and set fire kills self aboard flight to L.A.
MIAMI -- The man accused of driving his new SUV into a Miami-Dade Ford dealership and setting it and other cars on fire last week killed himself aboard a commercial airline flight to Los Angeles, news partner NBC 6 reported on Thursday.
The Denver Medical Examiner's Office identified the man as Gerald Georgettis, 56. The same man was charged with arson and felony criminal mischief in Miami after a fire caused nearly $1 million in damage at a Ford dealership there last Saturday. He was free on $1,500 bond.
The Federal Aviation Administration said a passenger was found dead in the bathroom of a United Airlines plane Wednesday night. Officials said he hung himself in the bathroom. The plane, en route from Washington, D.C., to Los Angeles, was diverted to Denver.
Denver police Detective Virginia Lopez said no other passengers on the United flight were ever in danger.
The Denver Medical Examiner's Office on Thursday ruled the death a suicide.
Georgettis was accused of driving his new Ford Escape through the Metro Ford dealership's showroom, pouring gasoline on it and lighting it. The fire at Metro Ford caused about $1 million in damage and destroyed nearly a dozen vehicles, including a $150,000 limited-edition 2006 Ford GT. Only 250 such cars were ever made.
NBC 6's Nick Bogert spoke with Georgettis on Monday. He said he regretted his actions at the dealership and said he was upset with the purchasing deal he had ended up with for the Escape.
"It was just stupid," Georgettis said.

News partner NBC 6 and the Associated Press contributed to this report.

Lekker...!!! In beide gevallen/vluchten worden dus de lijken hier in Colorado 'gedumpt', terwijl ze ergens anders heen hadden gemoeten.
Daarnaast kan ik mij de daad van de man bij de Ford dealer wel begrijpen. Ik had namelijk bijna hetzelfde gedaan een paar maanden geleden toen Ford mij had belazerd met mijn SUV. (Zie mijn draadje elders op dit forum). Geen idee hoe Ford met de mensen hier omgaat, maar duidelijk is dat dit wel wat beter kan dan nu het geval is.

Dus NOG een reden om geen SUV te kopen!
