Code Section 22-1312 (formerly D.C. Code Section 22-1112).” It goes on to say, “The acts began, continued and were completed while the aircraft was in flight from Philadelphia International Airport to Orlando International Airport, during which it overflew parts of the District of Maryland and other federal districts.” Haak was charged under 49 U.S. Code § 46506(2), which pertains to the “Application of certain criminal laws to acts on aircraft.” Southwest spokesperson Brandy King said in a statement, “The Pilot in question is no longer Employed by Southwest Airlines and departed the Company last year prior to us becoming aware of the matter.
