It was probably something really exciting like a Jetstream employee whacked him in the face with a full trash bag!

Sad part is the two US Employees, while doing the right thing just might get sued. I wouldn't be even a little surprised.

They won't, they did their job, someone was on the ramp without proper ID. Part of training is to challenge someone without ID.

P.D.I.D.

Challenge, yes...confront, no.

For allegedly doing their job? Newsflash, escape was futile behind security. He never would have made it anywhere.

Good job!

Sure. A&B's, Chairman's Award, and whatever else have you. We recently had two fleet service agents recognized and rewarded ($$), one for I believe putting out a piece of equipment that caught fire and the other who was able to stop a runaway tug that was on a collision course with an Airbus engine. Good guys.

Point of order:

Just because they did the right thing and should be complimented and rewarded. Even 100% right doesn't prevent the escapee from filing a lawsuit. It might be a worthless a roll of Charmin but it can focre the "The Good GUYs to incur legal fees.

Maybe on of the PHX folks can confirm this but according to a post on another forum the US employee was a retired Chicago police officer.

Again, you post about things you know nothing about. If you worked for an airline and knew about what goes on on the ramp and the training....

Forget it, you just want to be a poseur, as usual.
