That'll teach Tony to rub elbows with the hoi polloi on a commercial flight.

The Prime Minister travels on commercial flights? Frankly, that doesn't sound too secure.

No word yet on what caused it to slightly run off the landing area

Great journalism, similar to a slight midair collision?

Why in the world would the Prime Minister be flying with 300+ other passengers? And, (second question) how could he be protected from every one of them, even with several security personnel?

CBS sources would not comment further as to why Blair was traveling on the plane.

I'd like to suggest the possibility that the reason for his being on the plane was to cross the Atlantic Ocean from the UK to the US.
