Did you see this one- Air Sea Rescue
 
Hi All

This is probably well known in Canada and Australia but was on the news here in the States this noon.

Air Canada flight to Sydney diverts to join a search for a lost yacht, and finds it. Good show, best reason I ever heard for a commercial airliner to be 90 minutes late.

Finally some excitement for the flight crew?

Well done!

Wonder if they got to 'buzz' the Yatch???? Now that really would make the flight memorable for the passengers!!!! Nothin quite like + zero altitude flying, eh Keith??

Odd...Air Canada can find a boat in the middle of a vast ocean, but can't find my baggage.

They found mine; one bag in Vancouver, one in Vienna and the third in Spokane. Funny, I was only flying from Ottawa to Toronto.
