Chilling audio has emerged from the man who stole a plane in Seattle on Friday and performed a series of highly dangerous maneuvers before crashing in what authorities have said is an apparent suicide.
The 29-year-old airline worker who stole the plane told air traffic controllers that he was „just a broken guy“ and that he just wanted to perform some „maneuvers.“
At one point, the man, who has not been identified, said before performing a dangerous barrel role: „I think I’m going to land it, in a safe kind of manner. I think I’m gonna try to do a barrel and if that goes good, then I’ll just go nose down and call it a night.“
