Elaine Ryan, aged 60, who loudly claimed a man on board a Flybe flight was a member of ISIS. A drunken gran who subjected fellow passengers to an ISIS rant during a Glasgow to Birmingham flight has been jailed. See NTI story NTIISIS. Elaine Ryan, aged 60, loudly claimed a man on board the Flybe flight was a member of the terror group and had a bomb on board. Birmingham Crown Court heard 48 passengers, including children, were terrified by her claims during the 50 minute flight. A self-confessed alcoholic, Ryan was seen by crew members with a half-empty bottle of vodka in one hand and an un-lit cigarette in the other. A former nurse with 30 years experience in the NHS, Ryan, of Sevillia Close, Coventry, had to be removed from her seat and was strapped in a galley area when crew were unable to stop her drunken tirade. Even then she continued hurling abuse and accused a steward of also being a member of ISIS who was armed with a bomb. The court heard the plane was able to continue on its scheduled flight path despite an emergency landing being considered by the captain. He was forced to request a priority landing slot, jumping ahead of other aircraft, to get the plane on the ground so rowdy Ryan could be arrested at Birmingham Airport.
