Jet circles Zamboanga airport waiting for missing air traffic controllers {Gadling}

Jan 11th 2009 1:17PM One thought that was never mentioned is the Airlines's rules. Each U.S. Airline has rules (approved by the FAA) to cover almost any situation and perhaps one covered what to do if a tower, scheduled to be open, failed to respond to radio calls. I'm sure the same applies to Airlines outside the U.S..
