For people who don't know the sky king was a maintenance worker who stole a horizon Q400 that was parked at Seatac (KSEA) and took it for a joyride doing flips and talking to ATC (you can hear it in the clip) before eventually nose diving into an sparsely populated Ketron island he was the only casualty in this, Terrorism was ruled out by the FBI it was ruled out to be mental health issues in some way Richard Russell became a voice for men's mental health that day.

I never get people who cheer this guy. He had severe depression and undiagnosed mental illness. He stole an expensive plane, tied up traffic control and killed himself. I have similar issues but wouldn't hurt my family like this.

The air traffic controller was very kind to him. He wasn’t encouraging him. He wanted him to make it back safe. It’s inspiring that he took the opportunity to really live before he ended it all. We’ve all had moments like this. There’s a lot of The Sky King in all of us. I wish he could’ve found a way through his troubles.

I don't agree with glorifying a guy who put many people in danger and also cause millions of dollars in damage.

fly hi sir...you finally felt absolute freedom from the chaos every guy fights in his head on a daily basis...and the air traffic guy should get a raise, he knew this guy was finally ready to be free and he kept calm and just let him do it ..

I was actually sitting on the tarmac at Sea-Tac when the Sky King took off. Our flight was grounded for hours, and we had no idea what was happening. Now I know, and I feel a personal connection to the situation. I never skip his video.
