2:49 AM PDT, October 6, 2005 Traffic at Netherlands' Airport Delayed By Associated Press AMSTERDAM, Netherlands -- Traffic was delayed at Amsterdam's Schiphol Airport on Thursday after an unexploded British World War II bomb was found in a nearby field, the airport said. The 500-pound bomb was discovered by workers in the nearby town of Vijfhuizen, about three miles from the main airport. Explosives experts decided the runway nearest to the bomb should be closed. "The projectile is sensitive for vibrations, is not in a settled position and is possibly live," the Dutch national traffic bureau ANWB said in a statement. Schiphol said in a statement that other landing strips are open, but changes to the usual takeoff and landing patterns -- combined with misty conditions -- were contributing to the delays. WWII Bombs and mines are still found on a weekly basis in the Netherlands, a reminder of its occupation by the Nazis and its location directly between London and Berlin. ------------------------ Yahoo!
