I was trying to find this flight on the Shannon LiveATC archives but the recording was not available during the time of the incident. The photo in the article is of 99-0404 but the caption indicates it was "pictured at Shannon previously". The flight in question actually seems to be SAM 521 operated by 09-0525 ?

Coincidentally, that evening I was recording 8-9 Mhz and I didnt have it upon review the next morning. If you happen to run across any audio, please let us know?
