Local Channel 5 | Wednesday, December 31, 2003 | Kristinn

Posted on 12/31/2003 7:11:32 PM PST by kristinn

D.C. Fox affiliate WTTG-5 reported a few minutes ago that British Airways flight 223 has been detained on the tarmac at Dulles Airport, Virginia, just outside Washington, D.C.

The flight landed at 7:06 p.m. Passengers have not been allowed to deplane. Some family members waiting at the terminal were able to speak with some of the passengers via cellphone. They were told TSA and other security personnell are interviewing passengers and inspecting luggage.

Over two hundred passengers and crew are on the plane.

More to follow as reported. Please forgive any errors as this just caught my ear.

The Best. Just the very BEST! We were talking about Simpson's just the other day - remembering how awesome their beef was. Did you happen to try the "bubbles and squeak?" AWESOME! (Potatoe balls with tiny bits of cabbage inside.)
