A Private Jet, (Gulstream, Lear, Hawker) could easily for a short time evade the F-15's, 16's & 18's if it was on a suicide mission to hit the Superbowl.

Possible scenario, look for a private jet scheduled into a surrounding Houston airport (within 20 natical miles of the Superbowl) diving to almost ground level at full throttle until it reaches the dome, this would take approx. 120 to 160 seconds till impact once the plane diverted.....Tom Clancy anyone?

For more impact terrorists could load the aircraft with explosives an/or radioactive material. With a direct hit and a heavy load of fuel, the Superbowl would cease to exist. The Bowl shape of an areana would amplify the blast within the structure.

Our security forces have their hands full....Several hundred private and chartered jets are scheduled into Houston this weekend. There is no security for them in either boarding, screening or baggage.

These concerns were with us during last year's Superbowl and amounted to nothing. But our enemy is patient and we cannot let our guard down.

God Bless the USA and our Troops!
