☆ Passengers Sue Alaska Airlines
  + stars: | 2023-11-03 | by ( Gregory Wallace | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +3 min
CNN —Passengers on the Alaska Airlines flight where an off-duty pilot attempted to cut off the engines felt the plane dramatically pitch forward, as if it were in a nosedive, according to a newly-filed lawsuit. The lawsuit, filed by three passengers against Alaska Airlines and Horizon Airlines, the operator of flight 2059, claims the airlines did not properly evaluate off-duty pilot Joseph Emerson before he was seated in an extra cockpit seat – the jump seat – on the October 22 flight. “The pilots and flight attendants operating Flight 2059 responded without hesitation to ensure the safety of all onboard,” Alaska Airlines said in a statement. The lawsuit says the passengers’ damages include emotional distress and asks the court to consider the matter a class-action lawsuit. It does not list a dollar amount for the alleged damages but does ask the court to order Alaska Airlines and Horizon to better screen crew members prior to flights.

Emerson told investigators he “had consumed ‘magic mushrooms’ approximately 48 hours prior to the incident on the plane,” an affidavit filed by prosecutors states. Off-duty pilot Joseph D. Emerson was accused of trying to shut off a plane's engines mid-flight. “The officer and Emerson talked about the use of psychedelic mushrooms and Emerson said it was his first-time taking mushrooms,” the affidavit says. Authorities do not believe the incident was an act of terrorism or ideologically motivated violence, a law enforcement source familiar with the investigation told CNN. ‘It was very shocking,’ suspect’s neighbor saysEmerson’s neighbor, Ed Yee, told CNN it was “very shocking” to hear of the suspect’s alleged actions.
