SEATAC AIRPORT, Wash. - Sea-Tac Airport was put on ground stop Friday night due to a security scare, according to Alaska Airlines.

A source at JBLM said it involves a stolen plane, which two F-15's have been tasked to intercept and forced to land.

The source says the military jet made contact with the stolen plane, which then began to nose dive and crashed in North Pierce County.

Alaska Airlines said via Twitter they are aware of an incident involving an unauthorized take-off of a Horizon Air Q400. They believe there are no passengers on board.

Sea-Tac Airport officials said an airline employee conducted an unauthorized takeoff without passengers and the aircraft has crashed in south Puget Sound.

They said normal operations at Sea-Tac Airport have resumed.

Made contact?

Would that be the first military use of power on a civilian target in air space over the United States?

A suicidal airport worker has killed himself by stealing a plane from Seattle Airport and then crashing it after doing barrel rolls.

Richard Russell, 29, was followed by fighter jets as air traffic controllers and pilots tried to get him to land.

But he crashed either as a result of performing stunts mid-air or ‘due to lack of flying skills’.

There are no keys. Tanks don't have keys either and I can only remember one ever being stolen in the US.

If you think airplanes have fucking “keys” you might be fucking dumb! Wish this guy had loaded the plane with child molestors pimp daddy’s and drug dealers. That would have been even better
