I disagree as I believe that they intended to create terror not by just blowing up planes over the Atlantic, but by blowing them up over American cities so the planes parts and luggage and dead bodies would rain over our cities. That would be real psychological terror.

Exactly what I was thinking. I still remember Flight 182 on the morning of September 25, 1978. It smashed into a densely populated neighborhood only a few miles from my house at the time - it was amazing that only 7 people (on the ground) were killed. Had it not been a work day...

Here's an amateur photographer photographed N533PS just before impacting the ground.

Doh! Try this one:


The aircraft crashed after colliding with a Cessna 172 while on a downwind for runway 27 at San Diego. The PSA jet's flight crew was cited at fault for failing to maintain visual separation with the Cessna after reporting it in sight.

If that's not terror, I don't know what is.
