The Daily Mail in the UK has the best roundup of the United Airways incident yesterday, including more info on the pilot than I’ve seen in any American media report. By the way, he was an Air Force Academy grad.
Interesting that most of the photos that accompany the Mail story come from Splash News.
UPDATE: This story says he’s a Purdue grad, so I’m confused. The story linked above clearly has him wearing a cadet’s uniform of some sort.
