Grounded World Airways jet free to leave Jackson
A World Airways jet grounded in Jackson for 36 hours after passengers protested a London to Bangor layover due to a labor dispute. The impoundment was lifted after a court action by passenger Judge Francis Bowling, who then withdrew the case. The plane remained grounded by a Teamsters local strike, with uncertain restart plans.
