An airplane
from Egyptair had to land in Glasgow after a message was found in the airplane.
The airplane was on its way from Cairo to New York but couldn’t fly any further
due to the message that was found. The note was found on the bathroom with the
words: “I’ll set this plane on fire”. A BBC producer from New York found the
note when the plane was already 3 hours in the air. She immediately told the
cabin crew, who locked the toilet for other people.
Opinion:
My opinion
is that it is very stupid to leave a message like that behind in a bathroom. It
would be really scary for people in the plane to read something like that while
they are in the plane. I think the person who did it, wasn’t even serious. I
think if somebody would want to do any harm, they wouldn’t have said anything
like that in the first place, they would just do it. I am glad that it turned
out fine and that nobody was actually harmed.

It was very well-summarized, you condensed the article to the basics. It took me a moment or two to know exactly what happened.
ReplyDeleteI agree completely with you. A real threat would have just been executed, not left behind some high school prank on the toilet.
