Oh my! My buddy Mr. hydrocortisone was right on. I am very impressed, Hydrox, my friend!
This is scary. And probably not for the USA as we would be on high alert, but for these places where no one really appears to care what planes come in.

I was thinking the same thing. Except a payload capable of an EMP strike. It would have to be a haymaker to be worth it.
If anyone is capable of putting it all together, it is D Company.

Take a map and draw a circle 4-5 hours travel and see what airports are big enough to handle a 777.

Sorry, didn’t see you before I pinged you further down.

Hubby and I were talking about that very thing just last night when we heard about the engine data being transmitted for several hours after the plane itself ‘disappeared’.
To: blam
Y’know...I re-read again last night. And I’m thinking the same as you....

If it were an ordinary hijacking, there would already be demands from the hostage takers. If they stole the plane for re-purposing (flying bomb?, resale to a turd world airline who won’t ask many questions?) then the fate of the passengers is in doubt.

If someone took it for this purpose, there is a state actor involved. Would be interesting to see if the engine monitoring system CAN be turned off. That should ID this aircraft if it gets airborne again. Shoot it down on sight.

Then that means, if somebody has the plane and has plans for it, they will do it sooner rather later as the systems start breaking down.

If it were stolen, what about the passengers? They had to be dealt with.

I never worked anything on the outside of a 777 but those engines are huge up close.

” . . It’s not like other planes - it’s in the top 1% of complexity and size in the entire world. It has multiple levels of failsafe computerized monitoring systems that send signals to all sorts of stakeholders all over the world for ever second it’s operational. . . “
Would that make the *pilot* be on an ego-trip ...
