Flatulence Forces Plane to Land

Dec 5, 9:12 PM (ET)

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - It is considered polite to light a match after passing gas. Not while on a plane.

An American Airlines flight was forced to make an emergency landing Monday morning after a passenger lit a match to disguise the scent of flatulence, authorities said.

The Dallas-bound flight was diverted to Nashville after several passengers reported smelling burning sulfur from the matches, said Lynne Lowrance, spokeswoman for the Nashville International Airport Authority. All 99 passengers and five crew members were taken off and screened while the plane was searched and luggage was screened.

The FBI questioned a passenger who admitted she struck the matches in an attempt to conceal a "body odor," Lowrance said. She had an unspecified medical condition, authorities said.

"It's humorous in a way but you feel sorry for the individual, as well," she said. "It's unusual that someone would go to those measures to cover it up."

The flight took off again, but the woman was not allowed back on the plane. The woman, who was not identified, was not charged in the incident.

She would have been allowed back on, but they couldn't find any "Gas-X" in time. :lol2:

How awful must they be that she felt she had to risk lighting matches on a plane?!?!

I suspect there is nothing at all funny in THIS story, if truth were known.

Someone needs to go find this woman, check out her farts and get back to us. .

Crash consumes the most gas.

I was thinking you... if you were overcome by fumes, Kiya and Yaya would still have Jose to look after them....

I'm sure that pant cuffs are not safe from their wrath either.
