Steven Slater's attorney, Howard Turman, said at news conference Thursday outside his client's home that flying "is in his blood." Turman says the 38-year-old airline veteran is a likable man who enjoys people and did his job properly. Slater briefly thanked all the people who had sent him support and love since his Monday meltdown aboard a JetBlue flight. Travelers say Slater cursed at passengers over the public address system after several odd run-ins with them during the 90-minute flight from Pittsburgh. Prosecutors say he deployed the emergency slide and made an escape. He's charged with criminal mischief and reckless endangerment. Follow Yahoo!
