Amarillo, TX - A JetBlue captain was locked out of the cockpit and wrestled to the floor by passengers after screaming about a bomb during a Las Vegas-bound Tuesday flight from New York.
This led me to pose the question... What if Queen had chartered Jet Blue for their tours, which member would do what? Who would take "Action This Day"? Would Freddie hide in the corner? Would Brian try to fly the plane? If Paul Rodgers were on the flight would he subdue the entire flight crew by himself?
Freddie would have needed all his powers to stop from biting his perfectly manicured nails, keeping him occupied the whole time. After a group of passengers subdues the lunatic in question, Brian would say "well, obviously that's what I was about to do". Two weeks later he would say that he came up with the idea. Two months later he would be convinced he took down three armed hijackers single-handedly. After calm had returned, it would become clear that the 'pilot' running amok was actually a more-than-averagely intoxicated Roger Taylor who had attempted to shove the pilot aside and impress a flight attendant or two, or three, perhaps more.
Only later would the band realize that John Deacon had not even looked up once from his crossword in the entire length of the proceedings.
