AA emergency in Dublin

I can see the headlines now, "terrifying flight in smoke filled aircraft"
From RTE:
An American Airlines passenger plane has been forced to make an emergency landing at Dublin Airport.
The jet was en route from London Heathrow to JFK in New York when the pilot reported a smell of smoke in the cockpit.
A company spokesperson said there appeared to have been a problem with an oven in the galley.
The Boeing 777-200 touched down safely in Dublin at around 10am.
All 135 passengers have been removed from the aircraft while it is inspected by engineers

Yeah, well, the guy was quite right to put it down pdq!

Never mess with smoke. It can very quickly develop to
terrifying levels or to fire, journalism or no journalism.

And yet the report you post simply states facts without sensationalism. Looks like it's the journo-bashers who are trying to stir up hysterics (again)
