    No - the news sites cannot confirm that there was a bomb scare. There was a bomb scare by a passenger who passed a note to the pilot via the air hostess. The plane then received a fighter plane escort to the ground.

    Anyone read the front page on the Indo this morning? They continue their spiral towards tabloidism.

    Apparently there was a "[FONT=Verdana, Arial]horrific mid-air bomb alert" as "[/FONT][FONT=Verdana, Arial]two RAF jets swooped and closed in on their plane". Complete and utter hype, blown out of proportion.
