Hmm, not sure about that...maybe they are getting smart...if you think about it, if all it takes to cause disruption at an airport is one phone call, think about doing it constantly to all the airports around the country...

Betcha this was someone running late getting to the airport and thought this would be a good way to hold up the flight.

Sounds like maybe there was something to this after all.

I may be wrong, but my intuition is telling me this is a stupid prank. Someone may have called in a threat, mentioned their “friends” and there ya go. I’m basing this on the call. What real terrorist is going to call in a threat before the plane even takes off???? But sure would work great to screw with a couple of passengers.

“You know it was the Methodists. I just read on twitter that one of the hijackers hit the co-pilot over the head with a casarole dish.”

True. It was chicken, the preferred weapon of Methodists.

He can probably brief himself when he gets out of the shower, but that was mighty nice of you.
