Dash 8 guides twin Cessna to safety

American version:


"Fight erupts at Norfolk airport after airline crew recklessly diverts airplane to assist incompetent rich private pilot. Unnamed sources reported the panicked crew made an announcement saying the weather in Charlotte was too bad to land and they were following small general aviation jet propeller airplane. Terrified passengers tweeted they 'feared for their lives' as the aircraft flew near the dark and stormy Atlantic. Only after touching down in Norfolk were they made aware they were at the wrong airport.
'I don't know why we came here. Or why we're on this 50 year old puddle jumper.' said Mama June, 45, of Charlotte. 'I feel uncomfortable. Watching the crew freak out made me nervous and I hope American will make it right.'
The flight continued to Charlotte with a new crew after a passenger in Norfolk claimed to smell alcohol on the breath of a pilot. A spokeswoman for American Airlines reported the crew had 'run out of duty time', but investigators at the Times have concluded this is a ruse."


Well done guys!

This is fantastic. Just throw in that it was a Cirrus pilot lost, and internet gold...
