Man Arrested For Impersonating Pilot

A man from France is arrested in Philadelphia, accused of trying to impersonate a pilot.

FOX News Radio’s Chris Foster reports:

The crew of a US Airways flight from Philadelphia to West Palm Beach, Florida found a man sitting in the seat behind the pilot’s, in the cockpit before takeoff.

(Police) “He was wearing an Air France shirt, he carried an Air France bag, and he had some identification that looked like he was a crew member from Air France.”

A police captain says Philippe Jernnard got argumentative and didn’t have valid credentials, the crew kicked him out.

He actually had a ticket for that flight Wednesday. He’s 61 years old… Now held on a million dollars bail, with a hearing April 5th.
