In August 2018, Richard “Beebo” Russell, a ground service agent with no flying experience, stole a commercial plane from Seattle–Tacoma International Airport and took it on a wild solo flight. Director of the new Hulu Documentary #SkyKing, Patricia E. Gillespie, shares what actually happened, using real air traffic control recordings and interviews to piece it all together. In Sky King, she sits down with Beebo’s friends and family to paint a more personal picture of the man behind the headlines.
