Suspicious note prompts delay of flight

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A note found on a food cart prompted authorities to pull a United Airlines passenger jet from service Sunday at San Francisco International Airport.

The passengers ticketed for Flight 150 to Chicago had yet to board when the note was discovered by a crew member loading a catering cart. The passengers were transferred to another plane, causing a delay of about two hours, airport spokesman Mike McCarron said.

McCarron characterized the note as suspicious but would not say what it said.

The plane was returned to service after a police search revealed nothing unusual, McCarron said.

The incident caused no other delays at the airport.

If the note's message was disturbing enough to cause a flight delay, I would like to know what the note said.

ON THE OTHER HAND, if we knew what the note said, copycats would try to emulate that note.

Hmmm....
