A JetBlue flight that was scheduled to take off from New York's JFK airport and land in the wonderful city of Las Vegas had to be diverted to Amarillo, Texas because the captain went bonkers! According to witness accounts, the captain became incoherent and was shouting words such as "Israel" and "Afghanistan" as well as pounding on the cockpit door.  People are unsure what the man's real problem was, but a couple of off-duty officers and passengers subdued the crazed captain, who was later taken to a mental facility for evaluation.
