A pilot in Mississippi is in custody after authorities say he stole a plane and threatened to crash it Saturday into various buildings and landmarks near Tupelo.
Officials had said an airborne pilot was threatening to crash his plane into a Walmart while flying in the area of Tupelo.
Videos circulating on social media on Saturday purported to show the pilot circling the aircraft in the area at high speeds. MORE
Next time steal something with enough range to get to D.C.

A Mohamed Atta wannabe
BullShit. That airplane thief was NOT a pilot.
If I steal a rocket ship does that make me an astronaut?
If I steal a train does that make me an engineer?
If I steal an election does that make me a president?
WTF over ??
Exactly.
I’m just glad he didn’t fuck up Graceland.
You don’t fuck with the King!
“…landmarks near Tupelo.”
Tupelo has landmarks?
“…Tupelo has landmarks?…”
Ummm,yeaahh. Walmart, duhhhh. People travel from miles around just to shop there.
Bobcat, Air National Guard keeps loaded F-16s on Alert at Andrews AFB. If hijacker looked like he was headed towards D.C. the 16s would have ruined his day. Further down the line the Air Force has lotsa F-22s just drooling to get the chance to earn their pay. Also, at any one time the Navy cruises up and down the Atlantic. I’ll bet highly trained, highly motivate sailors can load and launch a Hornet in 20 minutes or so. Yes, they’re that good.
Elvis birthplace is in Tupelo, not Graceland. It’s a tarpaper shack on the wrong side of the tracks that run parallel to Rt. 45. A watermelon from 1,000′ could take it out, no need to kamikaze it!
