Let me guess; passengers were complaining about beverage service and the pilot decided not to take any chances and called for an F-16 escort.

AMSTERDAM (Reuters) - Dutch police confirmed the arrests of 12 passengers on a U.S. Northwest Airlines plane bound for India which was forced to turn back to Amsterdam's Schiphol airport on Wednesday.

"The 12 people that have been arrested were passengers," a spokesman said. "They will be interrogated in the coming hours by police investigators."

Asked whether a suspected terrorist attack could be ruled out, the spokesman said: "We don't want to get ahead of ourselves."

Sorry, double post by 4 minutes.:beer:
 
why the sarcasm?
I could understand if all the passengers were complaining about there Antec PSU`s and the pilot decided not to take any chances and called for an F-16 escort.
 
So I imagine that if you were on that plane, you'd loudly insist the flight continue regardless?
 
According to CNN, "the passengers were sharing a cell phone." Is there no limit to the fear being shown these days?

Yes, I think the flight could continue, after all the flight crew changes their underpants.
