Why would the guy have an instructional video on how to fly a plane in his bag? Why would he even need a bag?
Sounds like a hoax to me.
To: dwbh
For once, it may be a blessing that a bag was mishandled!

According to the story, this bag was meant to have been loaded on the doomed plane. I would suppose the hijacker intended that all the evidence and identification, including the video, would be blown up with him.

They arrived late, and according to the story, they contained IDs so that
people could look like they were deadheading.
Yesterday on the Howie Carr show a woman said that she
was an attendant, and while she was in Rome (I think), the stuff was stolen from the hotel.

What is deadheading?

That's where members of flight crews who are not on duty and are going home can catch a seat on non-full flight.

Within the last 5 minutes there was a clip on ABC of a press briefing of some sort done by a panel that included head of security at Logan, local US Atty, and others.
One media rep asked the following question: Two men arrived late, paid cash for one-way tickets, and fit a profile. Why were they allowed to board. The panel member refused to answer due to on-going investigation. The media rep ask the same question a second time at which time ABC cut away.

I almost passed out when I heard that, which followed the fact that they KNEW the
perps were on the INS Watch List.
It was followed by the fact that there appear to be 800 badges missing.
To: Diogenesis
I must have missed that part about Missing badges.
