US 3079 LGA-SDF diverts, security concerns
No link, has been breaking news on CNN.
US 3079 aka CHQ 3079 LGA-SDF diverts to PHL due to "security concerns" What was it this time? Rowdy Pax? Abundance of Caution(tm) Pax in 1A realizes not in First Class? Given it's a 2~ hr haul on an E145, we know no Spiff on board. Spiff doesn't do RJ's. |
Somebody must have forgotten that you can't pee on the plane.

Looks like a crewmember mistook a religious item for something else. |

Gotta love TSA Spin - Prayer is now "disruptive"

"The plane was diverted to Philadelphia International Airport (PHL), where it landed without incident at approximately 8:50 AM EST. "Per standard procedures, TSA and law enforcement personnel met the flight. The disruptive passenger was interviewed, the plane was swept with negative findings, and the flight is taxiing to the gate." Nothing about whether the detained prayer was permitted to continue on his merry way. |

When they got on board and searched the plane and talked to the teenager, they determined there figured out there was no threat at all, apparently just a cultural misunderstanding. |

Somewhere in Pakistan Osama Bin Laden is reading this article and laughing.:td::rolleyes::td:

OK I can understand the FA might not have known what the guy was putting on, and got worried
what I dont get is why that guy didnt pray before getting on the RJ. He could have prayed starting at appx 6:20am. Given the choice, Id pray standing in the term over my seat (especially on an RJ) any time. |
Yup, no longer allowed to pray on a flight...must pray in the boarding area. As we have seen in the past couple of years, that also goes over about as well as a fart in a spacesuit with TSA and the inevitable "Abundance of Caution."

But the inaccuracy of the times in these articles bothers me. Don't the reporters even bother to check? It's not that inaccurate, but it's so easy to get it exactly right. 3079/21JAN P LGA/OUT 725A E00:04 P LGA/OFF 749A P PHL/ON 839A P PHL/IN 844A |
