Memphis -- A university student from Egypt was ordered held without bond after prosecutors said they found a pilot's uniform, chart of Memphis International Airport and a DVD titled "How an Airline Captain Should Look and Act" in his apartment.
The FBI is investigating whether Mahmoud Maawad, 29, had any connection to terrorists. He is awaiting trial on charges of wire fraud and fraudulent use of a Social Security number.
Maawad, who is in the United States illegally, told the judge during a hearing Thursday that he is studying science and economics at the University of Memphis.
"My school is everything. I stay in this country for seven years; I stay for the school," he said.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Steve Parker said Thursday that the airport-related items were found during a Sept. 9 search.

LOL! (always have been...sometimes has gotten me into trouble....can remember first incident of such when in 2nd grade : )
That sounds like very interesting work...partly sounds fun. Sort of like detective work...I enjoy that kind of work, myself (not a police officer) with paperwork in legal field.
And I've heard of Gulfstreams!!
PROFILING! PROFILING!
It doesn't matter that he's from an Arab country, in the country illegally, stealing a social security number, has a pilot's uniform, an airport map, and a DVD on 'how an airline captain looks and acts', they arrested him because he's a Muslim, and that's PROFILING!
www.gulfstream.com is most interesting and enlightening.
The G100, G150, and the venerable G200 are a product of IAI.
What sort of company delivers (by mail order, I presume?) $2,500 worth of merchandise without payment up front?

Just am checking the site, those are sure beautiful planes. I think I remember, now, seeing them at the private airports in Colorado and California
Find out who his colleagues and contacts are.
Yes they are the pinnacle of the business aviation aircraft and the #1 frustration to the sales personnel of competitors.
The Gulfstream must be like the Rolls Royce of airplanes?
Rolls Royce is the likes of Gulfstream. ; )
Rolls Royce is the engine of choice for the GII, GIII, GIV, GV, G300, G400, G450, G500, and the G550.
LOL! I didn't know that.....wow.
Darn, this is annoying. I searched before I posted this in another thread. Now I see it. Forgive me fellow FReepers, my intentions were good.
You are forgiven......go in peace!

Please see this site; maybe it will help see what really is planned

I think also we have to ask the so-called Scholars of Arab regimes
to remove themselves because they no longer fear ALLAH; I think that
after what is happenning in Iraq, we don't need anyone to fool us
any more. All Arabs and Muslims will be next! I'm sorry to say that
even the people of the Gulf did not get the message: their regimes
are in bed with America.
ALLAH SUBHANAHU WA TA'ALA Said that HE will not change your
condition until we change ourselves.
May ALLAH protect you and people like you--Ameen

shame on you Mr Mubarak and evey one follow you in that shame and stop fooling us nd the best thing 2 do now is to leave or to fix all the mistake you did, you people are able to fire those EVIL axes and all egyptian able to reduce their three meals to one meal ONLY, and all of them will be behind you nd support u if they find you brave like Abdulnaser or Sadat, don't ask that dumb/donkey bush for any money.
USA will respect any arab leader say to it "NO" and in the end we do not care about that three EVIL axes, don't think about us as egyptians only but think abt all arab countries because we're all arabs and muslims, last thing i would like to say: do not find any excuse to USA to attack Iraq by saying Mr. Sadam put us in this situation and enough falsing us, NO ONE IS PERFECT, we're only humans nd everyone does mistakes and you know that USA pushed Mr Sadam to fight with Iran and also to kuwait to gain what they've gained now

we all believe that we can do much more together , we have to say NO even one time to those who though they can control the globe. Alah declare it in the quraa'n but in the time we will be the almost bad Muslims in the history. the nation needs only an honest leader to make the decision, then from gulf to Atlantic we are ready to sacrifice our selves in the way to gain back our honor as a best nation among others as the holly quraa'n mentioned
if American attack Iraq now, then Iran, then Pakistan then Lybia and Yemen. may be egypt will be the last. but they will not control all these countries by force. this is the fact. the more they attack and occupied, the more they will get weaker and weaker in long term run.
in that time , we already paid the price of our blood and houses and brothers and sisters and so on. WE HAVE TO PAY SOME THING TO GAIN OTHERS. we all never allow Americans and others to roll us, impossible regardless any other thing.
so that may be the beginning of AL NASR started by Mr Bush himself, to awake our nation and Muslims in the world. they know that we are strong , the more they attack us , the more we getting stronger.
our regimes in middle east are shaking at the moment, they have only one choice . to follow America or been killed. there are no sign of freedom unless we pay our blood in the long term run. may be i am mad to think this way. but let us get together first then insha alah another Salah al din will get born somewhere not far from us.
its just thoughts came to the mind regarding the situation in our country.
thank you very much for your time.

Yeah, sure, Maawad. You're a DIP-wad! And a danger and a menace.
Hanging around Memphis no doubt, so he could hijack one of FedEx's planes!
Give him his wish. Tape some paper wings to his back and throw out of a plane at 30,000 feet.
When I was a young stockbroker, there was a book around called "For What It's Worth." And it could be the like this one. All I recall is the dictum: "crisp, white shirt. the tie should end about 1/2 inch above the belt buckle." To this day, that is my guide in tying my ties.
maybe this book is like that...who the (*(IPO knows.
The real question is, why didn't they report him when he bought the stuff? Why only when he didn't pay for it?
