A United flight from Newark to Geneva diverted to Boston with a NORAD escort Tuesday night after a suspicious device was found onboard. (www.nycaviation.com) 更多...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
I know it's better to be safe than sorry, but isn't the waste - fuel, time, missed connections, lost holidays, missed meetings etc - a bit much in comparison? Bomb disposal squads have a box of some sort that they put potential explosives in - wouldn't it be so much cheaper to have that on planes? Or even just a jettison shute to drop suspicious things out of the plane?
Careful now, that makes sense. Can't have that!
Why did the flight divert to Boston, instead of Bangor, which is smaller (fewer people, less traffic) and appears to have been nearer?
