I just read this hilarious New York Times article that sounds like a scene from a movie. The only unmovie-like part is the fact that he got arrested. Check it out:

Then, the authorities said, he pulled the lever that activates the emergency-evacuation chute and slid down, making a dramatic exit not only from the plane but, one imagines, also from his airline career.
On his way out the door, he paused to grab a beer from the beverage cart. Then he ran to the employee parking lot and drove off, the authorities said.
