South American nations furious over diversion of Bolivian president's plane - live | World news | guardian.co.uk
Although the Guardian cannot 100% verify the audio, it comes from a source who has a track record of monitoring aviation communications. (In this 2011 article, Huub, also known online as "BlackBox" and @FMCNL, is described as a former member of the Dutch military who has been monitoring radio frequency scanners, amplifiers, and antennas for more than 25 years.) Part of the conversation goes: "Do you need any assistance?" "Not at this moment. We need to land because we cannot get a correct indication of the fuel indication...we need to land."
