A bizarre incident disrupted air traffic control communications at Houston's George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH) early this morning. A documentary about the USS Abraham Lincoln was broadcast over the airport's tower frequency, interfering with normal operations. The tower controller reportedly claimed he did not hear the unauthorized transmission. The incident is considered more serious than typical radio interference due to its potential impact on flight safety.
