A Note to Our Readers

Dear Readers,
We make a special effort here to record the facts as we receive them. At times, there may be error but we do try to use our best judgement at the time of posting, and will be glad to amend any details which are proved incorrect. Furthermore, even though we do not here discuss the human cost, we realize that losing anyone in an air accident is insurmountable tragedy to individuals, families and communities. We do extend our heartfelt sympathy to those whose loss we record here. "...any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind, and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls, it tolls for..." us all.

Port in the Storm: Jackson-Evers International Airport


What: nine diversions and an emergency landing
Where: Jackson-Evers International Airport
When: Thursday Dec 18

It sounds bad, but really it means that Jackson-Evers International Airport is a real port in the storm. All these diversions and no disasters. Good Job, Jackson-Evers


  • Continental flight en route to New York's LaGuardia airport flew in with engine trouble.
  • Six were out of the Little Rock, Arkansas airport where there was a problem with runway lights.
  • Several flights were diverted to Jackson from Tulsa, Oklahoma due to weather.
