More airline issues.

The latest installment in a series of Airline employees behaving badly: video of a Delta Airlines pilot appearing to slap a woman who was in a fist fight with another passenger while deplaning in Atlanta is now going viral.

While the footage is causing outrage on social media, the airline is standing by their pilot — crediting him with de-escalating the situation between the two passengers.

Sputnik news is a Russian government controlled outlet. Is anybody else reporting this?

Delta officials told TMZ the video doesn’t show everything, and the pilot punched the woman because she had the other woman in a chokehold and was trying to get her to release the dangerous grip.

Most media is reporting.

Delta pilot punches female passenger in fight at Atlanta airport | FOX31 Denver

Delta officials told TMZ the video doesn’t show everything, and the pilot punched the woman because she had the other woman in a chokehold and was trying to get her to release the dangerous grip.

The women in the video had reportedly gotten into a skirmish earlier on the airplane and they knew each other.

Hope Delta bans the three women for life.

What a mess, sounds like the pilot did the right thing.

Anyone remember when flying was a rather high classed way to travel?

After deregulation it became more like riding a third rate bus line.

Shoot, I'm already boycotting United in case I have to get up while in line for take off. Now Delta is on my no-fly list, never know when I might need to get into a throw down and I certainly don't want the flight crew interfering.
