Ironically, it was security measures, (Cockpit door lock) and safety, (Rope), that enabled him to do it and leave the aeroplane.

I think he should be given asylum . Preferably one with padded walls.

I was wondering why he didn't just land at Rome as scheduled, nice and legal-like and then catch a train up to Geneva. ?
No fuss, no drama, no Carabinieri.

I love the fact that the Swiss air force didn't intercept because it was outside office hours
