You're right about a SAM. Something that has a powerful search and tracking radar would be detected like a thumb you just hit with a hammer. Furthermore, where are the pieces of this SAM? Most of them are BIG. How did it get there to shoot? This is like saying that we'll secretly bring in an aircraft carrier into the SanFran harbor. It's even less likely than the MANPADS theory. It takes time to set up, numerous people to operate, it's big with a huge radar signature....... The likelihood of a radar SAM? Ahhhhh-none. The conspiracies are based on MANPADS but even this is "highly" unlikely, I think. I'm no expert, nor do I claim to be, but with my limited knowledge of weapon systems I can certainly discount a MANPADS or other SAMs as the reason for this crash.

PARIS ARRESTS
TWO men, one posing as a pilot, were held at Charles de Gaulle airport an hour before the doomed plane took off, it was revealed.
One of them - said to have a "Middle Eastern appearance" - asked about flights at an Air France desk dressed as one of its staff and carrying a fake airport identity badge.
His accomplice tried to drive him away but the pair, aged 35-40, were arrested.
Detectives yesterday searched the men's flat in Paris while they remained in custody.
