British pilot arrested after trying to land at George Bush's Texas ranch
"An British pilot flying solo around the world was arrested by U.S. police today after trying to land his plane at George Bush's ranch in Texas.
Retired vet Maurice Kirk, 63, wanted to "drop in" on the president to say thanks after American coastguards saved his life two months ago.
Mr Kirk was impressed when they rescued him from shark-infested waters of the Caribbean after his World War II plane ditched in the sea on the latest leg of his around-the-world adventure.
But when the former drinking pal of hellraising actor Oliver Reed touched down six miles from the Bush ranch armed security officials quickly surrounded his light aircraft.
He was arrested, handcuffed and taken to Austin State Hospital where he was being assessed."
