Rule 5k ft.

A passenger boards in Philly for Frisco. He goes nutty, and the plane has to divert to Pittsburgh:

Why? The guy’s making a total ass of himself. Time for Rule 5 at 5,000 feet. The guy ends up being humiliated by a stewardess.

Now, if it’s legal, fine. If the dope is prescription, fine. A note from your doctor, however, is not an excuse for crappy behavior. If taking the medication precludes air travel, so be it. You can’t always get what you want, and the need to have a safe, low-stress flight trumps any dude’s need to be baked at altitude.

This is not the deed for which one wants one’s 15 minutes of fame.
