Going by the photos, it seems to be a Boeing 777-200....... Wonder why the guy thought it wasn't safe. Triple 7's have an excellent safety record mechanically.

Maybe the guy has some medication or mental issues.

Somebody does

The plane was taxied to a safe place on the west runway.

PHUKET: -- The Russian man who yesterday morning (Mar 20) complained about feeling unsafe on a Phuket-Moscow flight operated by Nordwind Airlines leading to the flight being aborted will not face any criminal charges The Phuket News has learned today (Mar 21).

At around 10:35am yesterday, Nordwind flight NWS 2478 was grounded at Phuket International Airport (HKT) by its captain, who radioed in for a full flight safety inspection after a passenger, named as 25-year-old Alexandar Nosof [transliteration] commented that he did not want to travel on the plane because he felt unsafe.

All the passengers were promptly escorted off the plane, which was taxied at safe distance on the west runway, where a UOD bomb inspection team moved into to remove and inspect all of the bags and cargo on the plane.

Hysteria is a strange thing. We all get feelings of deja vu or other strange feelings and impulses. However, when these feelings start to take over- then it can be dangerous. I would imagine that his falling immediately asleep and then suddenly waking fueled whatever was in his mind. He will probably be placed on a watch list. Years ago in Los Angeles airport- when I went through security, the machine detected a trace of glycerin in my carry on. I was examined intently and of course they found nothing and was allowed to proceed. A few months later when I was looking through my hand bags I found a small tube of super glue, which contains minute traces of glycerin. That is what triggered the device. Strange- the security never found the super glue in the bag. Ever since that incident, I always have a few moments of anxiety when I fly.

I would rather get there in one piece than several pieces. We can't discount premonition or precognition. Two nights ago, I had a dream involving snakes. The following day, we have a snake at our kitchen entrance to the house, which I despatched. Spooky.

Apologies for the pawky sentence. The snake was despatched, not the house.
