Elle,

That was a pretty amazing story!  There was another incident last
week, a Canadian airline flying to Europe had a First Officer suffer a
mental breakdown enroute.  They drug him out of the cockpit and a
flight attendant sat in his seat for the remainder of the trip -

The theory going around the net amongst professional pilots is that he
opened his 401K statement in cruise.
