Title: Recording Needed: TYS-DTW flight diverted to SDF due to turbulence
Post by: allegheny08 on August 05, 2009, 11:00:32 AM

I'm a journalist looking for a recording of Northwest Flight 2871.  It diverted around 1700 eastern time on 4-Aug-2009 due to severe turbulence.  Two on board were injured.

The CR2 diverted to SDF.  Anybody have a recording of the pilot's conversations with Indy Center or Memphis Center?  It would be greatly appreciated.

Not really any new info, but it does have a pic of the wx in the area and the CRJs' location.
