I think you're referring to an incident with a FedEx employee. (Either
that or a freakishly similar one happened to FedEx.) The employee
used some of the instruments already on board the plane, particularly
a hammer, to injure the captain. He intended to crash the plane into
the primary data center facility for the company.
