AVIANCA B787 Intercepted by Venezuelan Sukhois
It appears that an Avianca Dreamliner from Madrid to Bogota was intercepted by 2 Venezuelan Su 30s today. The B787 is alleged to have suffered failures of its transponder height and callsign info being transmitted. TCAS alerts were experienced apparently. Colombia has now ceased all flights to Venezuela as a result of this 'diplomatic incident'
