Detected by the cabin crew? The implication is that the PIC and the third pilot who co-occupied the flight deck missed the problem, were prepared to overlook it or it did not exist. If he in fact is still in custody, it would sound like his testing was positive.
"Seconds from take-off"? Dramatize much?
