Jailed Delta pilot suspended
Man accused of trying to run over Griffin police with his private plane.

By Megan Matteucci
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Friday, November 13, 2009
Delta Air Lines has suspended a pilot while officials investigate charges he tried to run over two Griffin police officers with his private plane.

Dan Wayne Gryder, 48, remains in the Spalding County jail, charged with two counts of aggravated assault and obstruction. He is being held without bond and is scheduled to be arraigned on Friday, the sheriff’s office said.

Gryder, a Delta pilot and private aircraft instructor, was arrested Wednesday at the Griffin-Spalding Airport.

“He is suspended pending the completion into the investigation in this incident,” Delta spokesman Anthony Black said Thursday.

Griffin code enforcement officers were called to the airport Wednesday on a report of a pilot disrupting the airport. Gryder was driving his car across the runway and taxiway, Griffin Police Investigator Bryan Clanton said.

Police said the suspect gave two officers a fake name. After learning the pilot was Gryder, the officers tried to issue citations, police said.

Gryder refused to sign the tickets and boarded his plane, a 1937 DC-3A, police said. He started the engine and told one officer that if she moved, he would strike her car, police said.

The officer, who was standing next to the plane, moved out of the way and summoned backup.

More Griffin officers and Spalding County deputies flooded the area and ordered him to stop, but Gryder continued to taxi down the runway, police said.

Gryder got to the end of the runway and tried to take off, but he was out of gas. Police arrested Gryder and took him to jail.

Gryder’s actions disrupted air traffic, prohibiting flights from departing or arriving, police said.

“He essentially shut the airport down for almost 45 minutes,” Clanton said. “His actions created a danger for all of our officers, himself and others who lawfully use the airport.”

OK as a fellow Delta pilot I don't condone this crap but if you read closely, the officers were Code Enforcement officers. Otherwise know as building inspectors in small towns. I have dealt with these "CEO's" and they carry a lot of clout with minimal knowledge. Usually not helpful folks in my neck of the woods.

While I have never tried to run them down with my plane, other methods of "revenge" have crossed my mind!

kidding....

btw, landing on taxiways, forgetting to land in MSP, testing positive in Heathrow (x2), now this.....

And we were looking so good post Sully....

Well, thats an important part of the issue. It wasn't France, it was the Santa Monica Pier, CALIFORNIA USA, a geograhical spot in which a goodly portion of the population is known to mount irrational responses at the drop of hat, whining even, on various issues in order to assert their importance.

I guess if a low pass happend in Nice onlookers would be cheering, like they do in other parts of the world.

Jailed Delta pilot suspended
Man accused of trying to run over Griffin police with his
private plane.


By Megan Matteucci
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Friday, November 13, 2009
Delta Air Lines has suspended a pilot while officials
investigate charges he tried to run over two Griffin police
officers with his private plane.


Dan Wayne Gryder, 48, remains in the Spalding County jail,
charged with two counts of aggravated assault and
obstruction. He is being held without bond and is scheduled
to be arraigned on Friday, the sheriff’s office said.


Gryder, a Delta pilot and private aircraft instructor, was
arrested Wednesday at the Griffin-Spalding Airport.

“He is suspended pending the completion into the
investigation in this incident,” Delta spokesman Anthony
Black said Thursday.


Griffin code enforcement officers were called to the
airport Wednesday on a report of a pilot disrupting the
airport. Gryder was driving his car across the runway and
taxiway, Griffin Police Investigator Bryan Clanton said.


Police said the suspect gave two officers a fake name.
After learning the pilot was Gryder, the officers tried to
issue citations, police said.

Gryder refused to sign the tickets and boarded his plane, a
1937 DC-3A, police said. He started the engine and told one
officer that if she moved, he would strike her car, police
said.


The officer, who was standing next to the plane, moved out
of the way and summoned backup.

More Griffin officers and Spalding County deputies flooded
the area and ordered him to stop, but Gryder continued to
taxi down the runway, police said.


Gryder got to the end of the runway and tried to take off,
but he was out of gas. Police arrested Gryder and took him
to jail.

Gryder’s actions disrupted air traffic, prohibiting
flights from departing or arriving, police said.


“He essentially shut the airport down for almost 45
minutes,” Clanton said. “His actions created a danger
for all of our officers, himself and others who lawfully use
the airport.”

The film of the L-39 made me shiver.   The guy lost his ticket with an emergency revocation.  But I am now hearing hints of other factors, and it was not just the "show off stunt" that it appeared to be in the news.  I am going to withhold any further comments because as of the moment it is all "hear-say", but even what looks to be a total nutcase on a news film can honestly turn out to be something else.  We are constantly pawns of the media... ALL OF US!   We are all fed news reports every second and are taught to take them as GOSPEL !!  I am as guilty as the next guy, but I am really starting to look at every single thing in the news, (I MEAN ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE MEDIA)... with the following question in my mind every time I watch... which is:  "Is this really true, or has it been pumped up and exaggerated to grab the interest of the person watching?"  Think about it. 
 
Bad people are indeed hiding everywhere... and the news media is no exception.
 
Best Regards,
 
Mark 

 
p.s. This is just my two cents, but let me tell you from having actually been where "news is being reported", that what I saw with my own two eyes is NOT how it was reported in the media.   The Middle East is a perfect example, same with Vietnam, and even Desert Storm. 
 
Further, my personal incident recently came about from SHOOTING A GUN AT MY LOCAL AIRPORT!   MULTIPLE SHOTS WITH A WEAPON IN THE VICINITY OF AIRCRAFT AND DOGS AND PEOPLE AND STUFF!    WOW...  Am I nut case or not?  (Please don't answer that.) 
 
Of course it was a little air-rifle and the local cops said no problem, but the Airport Authority ... well, another story entirely.  All that from shooting a little BB gun at a tin can. 
 
Big Sigh....

Jailed Delta pilot suspended
Man accused of trying to run over Griffin police with his private plane.

By Megan Matteucci
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Friday, November 13, 2009
Delta Air Lines has suspended a pilot while officials investigate charges he tried to run over two Griffin police officers with his private plane.

Dan Wayne Gryder, 48, remains in the Spalding County jail, charged with two counts of aggravated assault and obstruction. He is being held without bond and is scheduled to be arraigned on Friday, the sheriff’s office said.

Gryder, a Delta pilot and private aircraft instructor, was arrested Wednesday at the Griffin-Spalding Airport.

“He is suspended pending the completion into the investigation in this incident,” Delta spokesman Anthony Black said Thursday.

Griffin code enforcement officers were called to the airport Wednesday on a report of a pilot disrupting the airport. Gryder was driving his car across the runway and taxiway, Griffin Police Investigator Bryan Clanton said.

Police said the suspect gave two officers a fake name. After learning the pilot was Gryder, the officers tried to issue citations, police said.

Gryder refused to sign the tickets and boarded his plane, a 1937 DC-3A, police said. He started the engine and told one officer that if she moved, he would strike her car, police said.

The officer, who was standing next to the plane, moved out of the way and summoned backup.

More Griffin officers and Spalding County deputies flooded the area and ordered him to stop, but Gryder continued to taxi down the runway, police said

Friday, November 13, 2009
Delta Air Lines has suspended a pilot while officials
investigate charges he tried to run over two Griffin police
officers with his private plane.


Dan Wayne Gryder, 48, remains in the Spalding County jail,
charged with two counts of aggravated assault and
obstruction. He is being held without bond and is scheduled
to be arraigned on Friday, the sheriff’s office said.


Gryder, a Delta pilot and private aircraft instructor, was
arrested Wednesday at the Griffin-Spalding Airport.

“He is suspended pending the completion into the

Griffin code enforcement officers were called to the
airport Wednesday on a report of a pilot disrupting the

Police said the suspect gave two officers a fake name.
After learning the pilot was Gryder, the officers tried to

The officer, who was standing next to the plane, moved out
of the way and summoned backup.

More Griffin officers and Spalding County deputies flooded
the area and ordered him to stop, but Gryder continued to
taxi down the runway, police said.


Gryder got to the end of the runway and tried to take off,
but he was out of gas. Police arrested Gryder and took him
to jail.

Gryder’s actions disrupted air traffic, prohibiting
flights from departing or arriving, police said.


“He essentially shut the airport down for almost 45
minutes,” Clanton said. “His actions created a danger
for all of our officers, himself and others who lawfully use
the airport.”

Hi Mark,

unfortunately I think you are not aware of how it is to fly in France. I can tell you that if you were trying a low pass near Nice or Canne the cops will be at the airport waiting for you. And not only for a fine !!!
We in France are all looking the US as a great country for the freedom of flight and the consideration people have for flightmen. Not in France I can tell you. It seems amazing but this is it.
It is so much more complicated here when it comes to fly !!!!
I propose that you come in France. Then we will together make a trip from Paris to Nice, starting with the A class around Paris, then the A class around Lyon, then all the military zones. Do not forget to avoid a french speciality since the 11th....the Temporary Forbiden Zones..(even if we did not suffer like the US)...Not forgeting the control for which you a a disturbance if you are not a commercial flight...
I tryed to purchase a L39 and you can't imagine the difficulties that the french administration is consciensciously making to us. I forgot it for the moment.

If you pass by Paris, you will be more than welcome to understand that and it will be my pleasure to make you fly in my 18T or 52.

Kind regards

Didier

I think you misread my comment, Mr. Blouzard, which was that ordinary citizens in US have become oh-so-whiny ... and litigious ... and that ordinary citizens in other parts of the world appear more likely to cheer than to flee or whine at at the sight of something fast and loud with spectral paint hanging on its slippery parts.

OK, my experience isn't everywhere though it has been gained in Nice, and in other spots in Europe where I've lived in past and in east Asia where I live now.

You likely will be delighted, as are residents, to see the Singaporean Black Knights working out over that city. SantaMonica Pier habitues will likely be sent wailing and hoping someone will notice them.

Many ordinary citizens of hold the idea that government is in place to help them. Not true. Government has a business to run and is in place to execute on its needs for cash flow.

If a citizen presents an opportunity for goverment to harvest cash, it will do so. Its a government employee's job to put money in goverment coffers.

The measure of a business is in its cash flow, those government folks have mighty individual power and know the way to both salary raises and to keep a job is to relieve citizen individuals of their money.

However, my comment was not about government, it was about a personal way of life that has finger pointing as a central theme.

That the finger pointing way is rampant in the US of the moment is well known. The way of blaming others, the whiny way.

The whiny way has a number of prominent subsets including "pay me, you have egregiously wronged me" though "I will become important if I complain" appears to be a prominent causal reason.
