ORLANDO, Fla. — A Southwest pilot was recently charged with a federal crime for exposing himself in public while flying a plane from Philadelphia to Orlando, according to court documents.
Pilot Michael Haak is facing the charge of lewd, indecent and obscene exposure of his genitals in a public place in the U.S. District Court of Maryland.
Federal prosecutors say the acts “began, continued and were completed while the aircraft was in flight from Philadelphia International Airport to Orlando International Airport,” flying over Maryland as well as other regions, his charging document said.
More details about the case were not available.
Southwest Airlines did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
