and had flown close to four hours before diverting to Gander, Nfld. The plane
stayed in Gander for a little over two hours before resuming its journey. The
passenger was attended to on board and the decision was made to return to Gander,

the passengers were about 30 Canadian athletes including members of the squash
team, badminton players, weight lifters and some track and field athletes.
