Well if he did get into the plane I wonder how he would have done so. You need to have a jet brige or something…

Interesting. Bc the doors arensupooe to be closed and locked when nobody is around

He probably got in there and saw the difficulty of actually starting an airplane and just sat in disappointment.

Maybe take this to a pm

It was but if it was parked there on an overnight, then the doors will be up and locked. There is no jetway at that airport…just airstairs

Let me clear some confusion. TXK does not have jet bridges. its a small regional airport that is only served by Envoy flying there E145s there. Theres only few ways to access aircraft at the airport and that is either through the pax terminal or through the FBO. How he got in the plane, must been through the locked airstairs that he somehow opened up.

At least the larger airliners do not have locks on the doors. I would have to check to see if the CRJs have them or not tomorrow at work.

They most certainly do not have door locks. That’s the funniest thing I’ve read all day.

I kinda wish they let the guy steal the plane and see how far he got. That would have been a hilarious outcome šŸ˜‚
