An 'air rage thug' died on a flight after fellow passengers overpowered him as he threatened to 'break into the cockpit.'
The man, 37, 'rampaged through the plane threatening passengers with scissors' and sought to 'break into the flight deck,' reports say.
Vladimir E. was pinned down by fellow passengers and 'tied up with plastic clamps' by the crew, according to accounts of the incident on a Russian plane flying from Moscow to Omsk.
When the man 'calmed down,' he was untied, but immediately lost consciousness, according to witnesses.
A report said: 'There was nothing that could be done to help him.'
