Jail for drunk easyJet passenger
A 64 year old drunken air passenger who tried to headbutt security staff trying to remove him from the plane at Newcastle Airport has been jailed. Donald McDonald was drunk and aggressive when he got on the 07:20 easyJet flight to Paris, and refused to leave the plane after staff became concerned at his behaviour.
He swore and threatened members of the cabin crew before he was dragged off the plane by security staff, Newcastle Crown Court was told. He was arrested and admitted a charge of drunkenness on board an aircraft in September 2007 and breach of bail.
Mr McDonald, of South Parade, Whitley Bay, claimed he could not recall what had happened because he had taken a combination of alcohol and anti-depressants. Mr Recorder Lodge jailed him for three months, describing him as a 'drunken lout'.

[textarea]Man caught with 2.4kgs of cocaine – after locking himself in car at Newcastle Airport
A hapless drug dealer was arrested with 2.4kg of cocaine after he accidentally locked himself in his own car in a car park at Newcastle Airport, the Northern Echo reports. Dean Gilmore was found trapped in his car at the airport in January after his battery went flat, making the central locking inactive.
Airport staff helped re-start the car to free him, then police searched the Vauxhall Omega and found £88,000 worth of cocaine in a bag in the boot. The 25-year-old, of Byron Court, in Swalwell, Gateshead, was jailed for three years and four months this week after pleading guilty to possessing cocaine with intent to supply.

[textarea]Laser teen charged with endangering jet
A teenager has appeared in court accused of endangering a passenger jet carrying 220 holidaymakers by shining a laser pen into its cockpit. The charges relate to incidents where a laser pen was shone at a police helicopter and the cockpit of a passenger plane.
The related incidents happened on 14 September when a Jet2 Boeing 757 plane was preparing to land at Newcastle Airport from Crete. When a police helicopter went to investigate, it too was targeted with the laser.
A 17-year-old from Pelton Fell has been charged with two counts of endangering aircraft. Appearing at Consett Magistrates’ Court on Friday, he did not enter a plea on the holiday jet charge. Suzanne Hanson, representing the boy, said he would be pleading guilty to separate charges of endangering a police helicopter by use of a laser pen, an offence said to have taken place in Pelton on the same day, and assaulting a female in Chester-le-Street on Wednesday, September 29.
The court was told that the youth accepts having a laser pen and playing with it. However, Ms Hanson said it involved a very complex area of law and that she may need to obtain flight path information to establish whether the aircraft flew over Pelton and have the pen examined to see how far it was capable of casting a beam.
John Garside, prosecuting, said he had never come across the area of law before and requested the case be adjourned so the Crown Prosecution Service could obtain the relevant flight path information. Presiding magistrate William Brown adjourned the case to Consett Magistrates’ Court on December 3 and granted the teen unconditional bail.

[textarea]Teenager sentenced over laser pen incidents
A teenage boy has been given a 12-month supervision order for shining a laser pen at a passenger plane heading for Newcastle Airport and a police helicopter sent out to track him down. The 17-year-old, from the Chester-le-Street area, who cannot be named for legal reasons, appeared at Consett Youth Court on Friday. He admitted endangering a holiday jet and a police helicopter in September.
The district judge was told there were 228 passengers and crew on board the Jet2 plane that was flying in from Crete on 14 September last year. It was flying at 5,000ft on its descent into Newcastle Airport when it was targeted by the powerful green laser. One of the flight crew on board the plane said that he said he was ‘dazzled’ by the light. Later that evening the police helicopter also had a laser beam shone on it, when it was sent to investigate the earlier incident.
The teenager said he had not meant to ‘cause danger’. In a statement he said he had bought the laser pen for £20 and he had no idea of the strength of the light. He said he had been in his bedroom playing, shining it out of the skylight window. He said: ‘I never meant to cause danger to anyone, I was just carrying on in my house.’

[textarea]Rogue Newcastle Airport cleaner stole passenger's belongings
A cleaner at Newcastle Airport has pleaded guilty to stealing property that passengers accidentally left behind at the airport
Paul Taylor, who stole property from Newcastle airportPaul Taylor, who stole property from Newcastle airport
A rogue cleaner stole property that passengers had accidentally left behind at an airport.
Paul Mark Taylor was employed by Derichebourg Multiservices Limited, a global multiservices company, at Newcastle International Airport for six years and among his duties was cleaning aircraft after they’d landed.
But, in 2012, the 49-year-old started to help himself to possessions that unsuspecting passengers had left behind as they disembarked their flights.
It wasn’t until October 2013 that Taylor’s deceit began to be uncovered and, by that time, the father-of-one had a small stash of stolen goods, including iPods and an Amazon Kindle.
