If Leonardo DiCaprio's Catch Me If You Can ever needed a sequel, prosecutors say real life may have already written one.
A Canadian man, Dallas Pokornik, is accused of masquerading as both a pilot and a flight attendant, allegedly raking in hundreds of free flights over four years, US authorities said.
Prosecutors allege the 33-year-old Toronto native created a fake employee identification card to receive free flights on US airlines - and at one point even asked to sit in the cockpit.
Pokornik was arrested in Panama and extradited to the United States, where he now faces wire fraud charges.
The BBC has contacted Pokornik's lawyer for comment.
