A Ugandan woman has given birth to a baby girl on board an international flight from Amsterdam to Boston after going into labour mid-flight.

The six-pound (2.7kg) baby named Sasha was delivered on New Year's Eve with the help of two doctors on the eight-hour-long Northwest Airlines flight.

Mother and baby were taken to a Boston hospital on landing and are doing well.

Sasha was deemed a Canadian citizen for customs' purposes because she was born over Canada's airspace.

There is no conspiracy hear, with the possible exception of where citizenship will be. I just do think something like this puts a new spin on the age old story of a baby being born in a taxi cab on the way to the hospital. I am glad both are doing well and wish them all the best. I wonder what the next level of this story might be? Maby being born during a space flight?
