A FURIOUS flight attendant argued with a passenger and hurled obscenities over his plane's public address system - before grabbing two beers and making an astonishing escape via an inflatable emergency slide.
Steven Slater dashed from the tarmac at New York's JFK Airport to his silver Jeep Wrangler parked in an employee lot and raced home, where he was arrested by Port Authority police.
Mr Slater, 39, was charged with criminal mischief and criminal trespass.
The meltdown was preceded by an argument with a passenger, who sources said told Slater "to f*** off" after he was told not to remove baggage from the overhead compartment.
The passenger then insisted on opening the compartment, hitting Slater in the head with the door as it dropped down.
After the plane pulled up to the JetBlue terminal, and as people began moving towards the exit, sources said Slater got on the public-address system and launched into a tirade, screaming: "To the f***ing assh**e that told me to f*** off, it’s been a good 28 years!" according to law enforcement sources.
