On Wednesday, at around noon two Slovak Mig fighter jets took off from Sliač airport. As TV Markíza informed the reason for this was a civilian Boeing which was not communicating with the flight dispatcher. The information about the fighter-jets was also confirmed by the Defence Ministry, which confirmed that they were following the civilian aircraft to the border with Hungary. At the border the Hungarian side started following the airplane. As TV Markíza reported, the Boeing was a plane of a British low cost airline. The problem of not communicating with the flight dispatcher was eliminated when the plane flew over Hungarian territory.
