Pilots Feared Hijacking After Losing Contact: Why SkyWest Flight 6469 Emergency Landing In Omaha? WATCH VIDEO
SkyWest Flight 6469 to LAX was forced to make an emergency landing in Omaha after an interphone failure led pilots to mistake cabin crew's knocking for a cockpit breach/hijacking attempt.
Flight 6469, a SkyWest flight, was compelled to declare an emergency and return to its point of origin airport on Monday after a total loss of communication between the cockpit and the cabin caused pilots to suspect a hijacking or cockpit invasion. The flight that was headed to Los Angeles safely landed at Eppley Airfield in Omaha, Nebraska, where it was greeted by law enforcers.
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) subsequently attested that the occurrence was a technical failure resulting from a malfunction of the intercom system in the plane.

The event happened a few minutes after Embraer ERJ 175 jet Flight 6469 departed from Omaha. The pilots lost contact with the flight crew in the sealed cockpit immediately due to a malfunction of the aircraft's interphone system, according to the pilots.
In a desperate bid to warn the pilots, the cabin crew started thumping repeatedly on the cockpit door.
On the flight deck, the pilots, not able to communicate through the interphone and hearing the forceful pounding, wrongly assumed that someone was trying an unauthorized entry or a security incursion—one that immediately activates emergency protocols post-9/11.
The pilots at once declared an emergency and made a sudden, hard U-turn to return to Omaha.
Passengers on the plane, including ESPN basketball writer Brian Windhorst, reported a jarring mid-air turn.
About 10 minutes in, we do a very sharp U-turn," Windhorst said to journalists. "That wasn't typical. There was no announcement.
Upon arrival, the plane was said to be greeted on the runway by police cars. Video shot by passengers showed officers getting on the plane shortly after it landed.
Once the situation had been defused, the captain spoke to the clearly bewildered passengers. "We didn't know if anything was happening with the airplane, so that's why we're returning here," the captain explained in a passengers' apology, reported by local media.
The FAA issued a statement verifying the technical cause of the scare: "SkyWest Flight 6569 landed safely following a return to Eppley Airfield. after declaring an emergency when the pilot was unable to contact the cabin crew."
The agency summed up: "Upon landing, it was found there was an issue with the interphone system, and the flight crew was knocking on the cockpit door."
The aircraft, which had flown only some 40 miles of its 1,300-mile route, was ultimately cleared to fly. The flight later resumed to Los Angeles with a fresh cabin crew, arriving several hours late.
