Journalists in Al Qaeda Airlines hoax

Two journalists walked into a Romanian airport wearing Al Qaeda Airline uniforms and put fake bombs on planes. An investigation has been launched after the pair entered Baneasa Airport in Bucharest dressed in hats and overalls marked "Al Qaeda Airlines". Alexandru Cautis and Catalin Prisacaru, from the Academia Catavencu newspaper, drove into a supposedly secure staff car park unchallenged.

They put fake bombs on passenger planes before going to a section of the airport which is used by the military. They walked around a Hercules plane being prepared for take-off before leaving, again unchecked by anyone.

Ah yes, release them from Guantanamo back into society. I’m sure they’ve learned their lessons and will be good boys now. *sigh*
