I think this is key to the current threats that are due before Feb 2,4,etc. There was a stolen cargo plane from Africa (I believe)...this would be a perfect point to launch a cargo plane with a nuke, bio, etc. for Washington... other wise they would have to re- fuel somewhere in Europe or Mexico, Brazil, Central America, Canada, Greenland...but this is just my speculation...I don't know what kind of plane that may be used and what capacity it holds.

I understand the the stolen plane WAS a refueling plane, or was retrofitted in some way. The implications is that it could fly a really long distance without refueling.

The aircraft was a Boeing 737. I researched this indepth awhile back, even getting actual images of the airframe in question. It was refitted with a couple of 1,500 gallon fuel tanks where the passengers used to sit. It is literally a flying bomb.
I hear rumors this aircraft is in South America somewhere.
