scenario, but who knows?  -k-)

To whom it may concern:
	My mother just recently told me that the passenger airliner that she
rode in made an emergency landing at Area 51 while she was on the way to
Las Vegas from San Francisco. She told me that they were forced to land
there because there was a high wind advisory and that no planes were
allowed to land at the airport. Because her airplane did not have enough
fuel to remain in the holding pattern, they radioed in permission to
land at Area 51. She told me that while the plane was on the ground, her
jetliner was surrounded by at least 10-15 military vehicles. All of them
had their machine guns trained on the airplane. While the passengers
were waiting, the air force refueled the plane and let the plane take
off with a full fighter escort out of the restricted airspace. She told
me that she was on the ground for approximately 30 minutes. All hangars
were closed shut and all she could see were the soldiers and military
vehicles. I was supposed to go to Las Vegas with her... That was
definitely one trip I should have taken with my mom!!!! Some people have
all the luck. I just wished that she could have taken some pictures. She
told me that some of the passengers were able to take snapshots of the
base from within the cabin. Maybe you could post a message asking if
anyone has photographs available... If you need to reach me, my address
is speedyzx@pacbell.net. Just think, most people can't get close to Area
51 but my mother was right smack dab in the middle of area 51.
