I can't stop thinking about this, and especially since there has been noting made of this in the media...who the heck would have been standing? Flight attendants are seated during the initial ascent. And given the fact this one passenger seemed to be aware of a problem with the plane, most flight attendants would have surmised the same, and remained in their seats. Especially given the fact they were turning back to make an emergency landing.

Unless, I suppose, this Fatima from Morocco was yelling into the phone and calling attn to herself...if a flight attendant saw this, I guess it's plausible the FA might have attempted to take the phone from her?

Yes, these 2 phone calls from her are a puzzle. Hope there's some plausible explanation coming soon. But there will probably be something very convoluted to explain it away.

Well, I can understand not giving a point to the bad guys, but it gets to be insulting to the rest of us after a while. I'd be happy to accept something reasonable, but eventually enough is enough.

If we hadn't had all of the 90s' attacks explained away as mere accidents, maybe I'd be more forgiving at this point.

Haven't they used cell phones to detonate bombs?
