Hey Gang!Those guys really know how to surprise the airport folks.Police: Kenya Security Drill Sparks Air Crash ScareWed Aug 21, 1:11 PM ETNAIROBI, Kenya (Reuters) - An air disaster drill at Nairobi's main airport sparked a scare that an airliner had really crashed and a flurry of media reports saying so on Wednesday, a Kenyan police source said. "They've caught us completely unaware, it was a very realistic drill," said a Kenyan police source at the airport, one of the security personnel who rushed to the airport in answer to the security alert. Earlier, Kenya's KTN television news reported that 76 people were feared dead after an airliner had crashed at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport. Separately, a Kenyan Airport Authority spokesman told Reuters that nine people had been killed when a Boeing 737 airliner had crashed at about 7 p.m. (noon EDT). An airline official confirmed that a major security drill was under way. WWWhhhheeeeeewwwwww!Sincerely,Dennis D. Mullert
