It does seem the likeiest scenario but it's 100% certain.

The plane is now 5 hours late. It would not have enough fuel to fly for a further 5 hours, even if the pilot did decide to take the passengers on a magical mystery tour. And wrap the plane in an radar invisibility cloak.

Post by: Grumpmeister on June 02, 2009, 02:25:42 AM: I've just seen some absolutely abominable footage of some of the relatives having to get help from airport security staff to get through the press vultures.

For fuck's sake, what do you think you are going to get out of these poor bastards? The lost treasure of the Sierra Madre? The unified theory?

Yes, it is news but you could at least try to have compassion for these people and not shove mikes in their faces for a fucking soundbite!
