UPDATE: Multiple passengers were removed from the plane by force. My brother-in-law is now off the plane as well, but he has been herded into some special area at Heathrow....
Thanks for your first hand report. Now we will hear this is just a drill!
Let us all hope that we will be as fortunate should we be boarding a plane with questionable people on it here in the USA! If we operated like Air El, we'd be much more safe as passengers and terrorists wouldn't risk "testing" our flights.
Hope that your brother-in-law is doing well, and that he gets home soon.
