A Benson man has avoided jail after he admitted being drunk on an aeroplane.

Owen Goddard, 29, of Littleworth Road, swore at passengers and crew after he mixed Valium and alcohol before he boarded a flight from Bangkok to Heathrow in May.

Goddard, who suffers from Aspergers Syndrome, was sentenced to a 12 month community order, 12 months psychiatric care and ordered to do 80 hours unpaid work at Isleworth Crown Court on Friday.
