A Cathay Pacific 777 also diverted to Eareckson about three years ago after smoke appeared in the cockpit. I suppose there's not much that can be done with a plane that has 200-300 pax on board at a place like that other than keep them there until a relief craft arrives. But I guess at times like that it's good that the place is there.
