A Saudi Arabian cargo worker, Muhammet Ahmet Mursi, is recovering after falling asleep in a cargo hold while loading suitcases on to a Turkish Airlines flight from Saudi Arabia to the Turkish city of Diyarbakir: he woke up somewhere over south-eastern Turkey.
Mr Mursi managed to make himself heard among the suitcases, prompting the pilots to pump hot air into the hold. On landing in Diyarbakir, Mr Mursi was taken from the airport for medical treatment at a local hospital.
It is expected that he will return to Saudi Arabia, probably on a seat, when his treatment is complete.
There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

Awesome, thats quite amusing really. Would have helped if he'd found a few cigars
Where's the challenge in landing with wheels?

Is that supposed to mean that he deliberatly got shut in the cargo hold. Yopu are confusing to completely different things, one is an accident, the other is of a much more serious nature. I fail to see the relevence of this comment or its worth.
