According to the Iranian press the plane was leaving Turkey on its route to Afghanistan. The plane was forced to land near an airport and there were 5 high ranking American generals on that plane. They are saying that after further questioning it was determined that the plane had entered Iranian airspace by accident. So they were let to resume their trip to Afghanistan.
That is my rough translation. It sounds like a bunch of BS to me.
Another Iranian source is saying that the passengers of the plane were not Americans but military officers from another country.
