"Kitten causes havoc on Belgian plane

A Belgian airline had to make an emergency landing after an aggressive kitten
got into the cockpit.

The SN Brussels Airlines plane was on its way from the Belgian capital to
Vienna when the kitten got out of its box in the cabin.

It had been taken on board by its female owner and got out of the box when a
child wanted to stroke it.

Passengers on board the flight tried to catch the cat, but failed to alert
cabin crew who were busy preparing meals in the kitchen.

When a stewardess brought meals to the cockpit, the kitten ran in and became
aggressive when the co-pilot tried to catch it.

As a result, the captain decided to land the plane in Zaventem. SN Brussels
Airlines said they're investigating the incident."

Hooli-kitten antics as a result of the poor thing being probably entirely
terrified by what was going on.

Cheers, helen s

Well it beats the Hell out of terrorists trying to hijack a flight.  I'm
sure the captain and co-pilot were relieved to find it was merely a kitten
wreaking havoc rather than some idiot with a box-cutter or a gun.

This line cracks me up. What's to investigate?? The cat got out of
the carrier, it got into mischief, got scared and scratched someone.
Sounds pretty straightforward to me. Bureaucrat-speak always makes
everything sound more complicated and more serious than it really is.

I can't believe they landed the plane because of it. Doesn't anyone
think that's a bit extreme? Maybe *that* should be investigated. :)
