When he was arrested, the agents had to administer first aid on site. Schrenker only said one word as he tried to resist arrest..."die."
 
My Mom today: "I heard on the news about a plane crash, they said Santa Rosa."

Me: "Yeah Mom, the plane crashed in Santa Rosa County, not Santa Rosa Beach"

Mom: "Well, they mentioned it crashed in a swamp"

Me: "What exactly are you saying mom? " :dunno:
:rotfl:

After officers gave him a lift to a nearby motel, Schrenker apparently made his way to a storage unit he'd rented just the day before his flight. He climbed aboard a red racing motorcycle with full saddlebags, and sped off into the countryside.

Hours after Schrenker vanished, neighbor Tom Britt received what he believes is an e-mail from Schrenker.
Despite the fact that no blood was found in the plane, Schrenker suggests in the note that the crash was truly an accident and blamed oxygen deprivation.
"Hypoxia can cause people to make terrible decisions and I simply put on my parachute and survival gear and bailed out," the e-mail reads.
Red motorcycle? What a dummy! Nothing like standing out as much as possible.

Hypoxia? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think oxygen deprivation was the problem at 4000 feet.

It's not unless you have other serious underlying medical issues are are a really heavy smoker. The guy was an accomplished stunt pilot for Pete's sake.

He's so full of crap his eyes are brown...

It definitely sounds like he lost it mentally - not due to the air, but all the crap he's going through (that he seems to have brought on himself, so sympathy is tempered).

Unless he's just doing a great job of setting up his temp insanity plea.
 
We're trying to figure out how he blew it. Of course, the plane not making it to the Gulf hurt him.

But can anyone explain why he called in a Mayday? That's how they knew he was in Alabama because they had his GPS coordinates, and that's how they knew he had bailed because they saw the door of the plane open.:dunno:

Yes, he is either not that bright or he has some bizarre plan that no one can figure out.

I mean, they caught him because he used the KOA computer (Komputer?) to email his friend, who has already been all over the news sharing his other emails with the law. He had to know that they would be able to tell where the email came from, right? THEN he slits his wrists, after he has telepgraphed his 10-20 to the cops.

He goes RIGHT back to the state where he had originally filed his flight plan as ending - I mean, he just about had to drive down 331 and turn left at Defuniak.

How does someone who has this weak mental capacity talk millionaires into handing over their cash? Clearly, I am missing a career opportunity, because I could be this stupid, with a little effort and more alcohol.

Did he want to get caught, or is he just muddled, or is he this stupid?

He apparently was unable to grasp the concept of government "bailout."

The millionaires' greed gene was dominate over their common sense gene.

I mean...come on! :roll:

I think when he realized that his "Plan A "didn't quite work out the way he planned he had to think up a "Plan B" on the fly.

The airplane running out of gas was bad enough, but the "mayday" was a real screw up. It was because of the "mayday" that the fighter jets were vectored to intercept him. They saw the door open, no broken windows, and no pilot long before it ran out of gas.

He should have just kept his mouth shut, and he would have made it a whole lot farther than he did.
