Title: UAL 956 Bomb Scare 7/31/12
Post by: mielsonwheals on August 01, 2012, 12:17:08 AM

Here's some audio of UAL 956 which diverted to BOS after a report of a suspicious device. The clip starts with Boston Approach. Edited for relevant comms...Some transmissions seemed to be cut off a little in the beginning.

Apparently one of the F-15 escorts had to declare an emergency as well, after a total avionics failure, but this is not confirmed.

Wow, a camera diverted/cancelled this flight. If I found the camera, I'd check it out for saucy pics before freaking out.
