US EditionBA Flight Attendant Found in Plane Toilet 'Naked and on Drugs'
Haden Pentecost admitted to working under the influence of methamphetamine and amphetamine, leading to his dismissal and a pending court sentencing.
- Haden Pentecost, a British Airways flight attendant, was found stark naked and drug-impaired in a plane toilet during a flight from California to London.
- Crew say he locked himself in a plane toilet after complaining of stomach cramps and needing to change, and blood tests later showed methamphetamine and amphetamine in his system.
- He appeared agitated, sweaty and babbling with dilated pupils and a high heart rate, and the flight manager stood him down after he failed pre-flight safety checks; a female colleague then dressed Pentecost and moved him to a seat.
- He has been sacked by British Airways, and the return service was cancelled with most passengers reaching destinations within four hours.
- Passengers and crew said the episode alarmed them, prompting the captain to summon medical help; this follows other British Airways crew controversies, and the airline has been approached for comment.
