"No doubt these are dry runs for a terrorist attack," the Times quoted an anonymous air marshal as saying.

A talk show host this morning was talking about this incident and then went to another article (out of London I believe) that said that the new modus operendi is to assemble bombs in flight and detonate them. This incident sounds like a dry run for just such a thing.

"...assemble bombs in flight and detonate them."

One plane blowing up isn't enough flash for them. It'd have to be a half-dozen or more simultaneously to out-do their last big event.

Which of course, is well within the realm of possibility.
