A pilot and a flight attendant for Pinnacle Airlines wanted to have sex in the woods, but ended losing their clothes in the dark and triggering a search that involved a police helicopter with body-heat-sensing gear, Pennsylvania authorities say. The naked pilot was found after he asked a woman he stumbled upon for a pair of shorts. The flight attendant was found in a nearby property rummaging through a car looking for a torch. Both appeared before a judge on charges ranging from indecent exposure, open lewdness, public drunkenness, loitering and prowling at night, to theft from a motor vehicle. (Source: Fark.com)
