Passengers on a flight out of Lynchburg Regional Airport had to be offloaded from a plane while a bomb dog checked it Sunday afternoon after a man commented that the plane would crash, according to airport and Campbell County officials.

Not too be too much of a nitpicker, but US flights in the 4000 range are technically US Airways Express flights operated by Piedmont. Granted Piedmont is a wholly-owned carrier but really can't be considered mainline US Airways as the thread title implies.

I think it was George Burns........first the grocery store.....now the airport. Maybe he really is God, our Lord has a great sense of humor.

Look at the Middle East. Three religions (Muslim, Christian and Hebrew), all worshiping the same god, yet at "religious" war with each other. Only a god with a sense of humor could have set that up.
