TWA do not fly!

TWA plane lands at wrong airport

CRAIG, Colo. (AP) — Aviation officials were investigating why a TWA jet
carrying 122 people made an unscheduled landing 17 miles from its destination
Wednesday.

Flight 641 from St. Louis landed safely in a snow shower at about 1:45 p.m. at
the Craig-Moffat Airport west of Hayden, Colo., Federal Aviation
Administration spokesman Mike O'Connor said.

The flight crew did not report any problems before landing.

The Boeing MD-80 got stuck in mud as it taxied to the terminal because the
runway was designed for smaller planes. The Yampa Valley Airport, which
serves the ski resort town of Steamboat Springs, was its intended destination.

"(The pilot) may have misidentified the airport he was landing at," O'Connor
said.

TWA spokeswoman Chris Kelly said the pilot had not yet been interviewed and
the airline did not know why the unscheduled landing was made. She did not
immediately know whether the pilot had flown into Hayden before.

The airline paid for rental cars for passengers or bused them to Steamboat
Springs, Kelly said.
