Mistaken Identities, Typos, Grounded Xmas Air France Flights

AP reports that the six Air France flights that were cancelled around Xmas were the result of mistaken identities and typos in the passenger manifest. WHOOPS!

Upon actual investigation, the "suspected terrorists" turned out to be a 5-year-old child, a prominent Egyptian scientist, an elderly Chinese woman and a Welsh insurance agent.

Thanks to Pat for an updated link that should take longer to rot.
