Compton/Woodley Airport plane almost stolen by student pilot

He got into the Cessna and started the engine, but he was stopped from going anywhere by a chain connecting the plane to the tarmac.

Oops!

There was a teenage kid that the press named the "Barefoot Bandit" who stole a plane and flew it to Bermuda.

Wow! He was quite a one man crimewave. He is currently in solitary in Washington State. Not because he is a highly dangerous death row inmate, but for his own protection apparently.

Student pilot my ass...didn't he learn anything? Surely he'd have spotted the chain during his pre-flight inspection!
