A YOB who abused cabin crew on board a flight has been fined.

Dmitri Paramonov acted in a threatening and insulting way to staff on board a Norwegian Air UK flight at Gatwick earlier this month.

The 40-year-old Russian national admitted his disorderly behaviour before Crawley magistrates.

Magistrate Vanessa Cumper heard Paramonov had behaved in the abusive and insulting way to cabin crew on board the aircraft, in breach of the Air Navigation Order 2016.

She ordered him to pay a £915 fine for his crime.

Paramonov, of no fixed address, must also pay a £90 surcharge and £85 prosecution costs.
