True, but how about the 100 kg of high explosives strapped
in the back seat? Hmmmm, what an attack platform,
stealthy, hard to see and joy to fly. Any terrorist
would kill to use it.

Please don't say things like that Paul, or the cost
of our insurance will go up even more.

So far I haven't had any students of Middle-Eastern
appearance asking to learn how to fly gliders, but
not how to land them!

I believe that one of the 9/11 pilots told a flying
school in the States precisely that for a Boeing 757.
That surely ought to have rang a few alarm bells, as
suicide missions are the only flights where an ability
to land is not really necessary!
