Airline passengers sparked a mid-air bomb drama tonight after they spotted a suspect mobile phone on a holiday flight.

The Boeing 737 was escorted by two RAF Tornado F3 fighter jets to Stansted Airport after the alarm was raised, but later declared safe by an ordnance disposal team.

Wow...

When I was flying back from China a fighter jet missed our jet by about 50m over Holland. Show offs. He did loop the loops then too.
