British Airways Bomb Scare


Radio DJ Steve Penk has told of his daughter's terror after a "madman" on her British Airways flight screamed 'I have a bomb and you're all going to die'.

The radio presenter said his daughter Natalie was on the flight to Dubai when a fellow passenger began running up and down the aisles screaming.


He said how Natalie had "never been so scared" as she sat in the row in front of him with her husband Jack.Apparently the man, who she assumed was drunk, was restrained by staff after running riot on board the plane.

He was allegedly pinned to the seats behind Natalie after he began "howling" and trying to fight other people.Steve said it took five staff and another passenger to calm him down.
He then apparently began shouting that the cabin crew were "trying to kill" him and claiming that they were stabbing him.

The unruly passenger also apparently verbally abused staff, calling them "fat" and "racist" as they tried to control him.


Steve said they managed to calm him for "around an hour" before he started shouting about having a bomb - just 30 to 40 minutes before landing.
