Here's one:

Bomb threat delays plane in FAI.

A quote from the article:

"The morning flight out of Fairbanks was already an hour late because of mechanical problems when the passenger alerted a flight attendant about the note, said Ric Barnett, operations manager at the airport."

The delay easily cost the airline tens of thousands of dollars, said Barnett.

"It's extremely expensive," he said.

I don't think they even care.

I remember a real "gem" was the guy who was late for a flight and called to say there was a bomb on board. How stupid can you be? And they traced it to a guy standing in line at the airport.

I'll bet it was one of the scabs who wrote the note. Probably didn't have a clue how to fix the broken aircraft and needed the extra time to dump the problem on the next shift.

Engine failure forces NWA plane to make emergency landing BILLINGS, MONT. -- A Northwest Airlines airplane carrying 250 passengers made an emergency landing in Billings on Wednesday afternoon after one of its two engines failed, officials said. The Boeing 757 touched down without incident about 4:45 p.m. after an equipment failure prompted pilots to shut down the plane's left engine, said Shane Ketterling, the airport's operations chief. Mechanics from Northwest were being sent to evaluate the plane. The flight originated in the Twin Cities and was headed to Seattle, Ketterling said

landings and aborted take offs have costed Scrappy Patch Air. Any idea. its got to be high due to the inconvience of the pax and the fuel etc etc
