police storm a JetBlue plane after a wrong co
Terrified passengers hold their hands up as armed police storm a JetBlue plane after a wrong code was used over the radio which mistakenly said the plane was being HIJACKED
A JetBlue pilot accidentally told air traffic control that his plane had been hijacked on Tuesday, sparking a massive police presence
Dozens of Port Authority police surround a JetBlue flight at JFK airport on Tuesday evening preventing the aircraft from getting near the terminal
Department of Homeland Security and the FBI were said to be on the scene
The FAA released a statement saying the aircraft 'experienced a radio equipment problem while taxiing for departure at John F. Kennedy International Airport'
It was later determined that the aircraft experienced a broken radio and the pilots stopped communicating with air traffic controllers

"No mention of compensation after this ordeal, just quickly being herded onto another plane"
"I honestly thought we were going to die!"
Jesus christ I cannot stand people. Yep you were going to die while still on the ground.

Just wait for the procedural changes and e-learning that’s going to come out of this one. “Pilots must each put a finger on the numerical pad on the transponder and simultaneously press each number, while announcing each press, while consulting the QRH to ensure compliance with ICAO standards. In lieu of a radio failure code pilots may utilize the JeppFD-Pro chart to obtain the phone number for JFK ATC, which can be called via the sat phone in the A321, or a personal cellphone.”

They were referring to the SWAT invasion of their airplane-not the MX issue
