ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. – A cross-country US Airways flight was diverted to Albuquerque after a male passenger removed his clothing mid-flight. Dan Jiron, a spokesman for the Albuquerque airport, said 50-year-old Keith Wright of New York disrobed Tuesday while sitting in his seat in the back of the aircraft. He said Wright was unresponsive when a flight attendant asked him repeatedly to get dressed and refused to be covered with a blanket.

Jiron said law enforcement employees who were passengers on the plane helped subdue and handcuff Wright before the flight landed. The FBI said Wright is in federal custody on a charge of interfering with flight crew members and attendants.

FWIW, I have experienced altitude related hypoxia on an airplane. I became gradually irrational and incapable of concentrating on the task at hand, then blacked out. Teammate observed the problem and assisted in correcting O2 supply failure. Was fully alert in < 5 minutes. YMMV

Leave him alone. He just wanted a place to put his donut while reading the newspaper.

The problem was he bought half a dozen.

My guess is he wanted to visit Don Schrader, Albuquerque’s semi-famous “naked guy”.

He's certainly got a lot of baggage to deal with.
