Seems like there are more air marshals on board these days. Nice to know.
It seems like they are really expecting something.

yup, could be a Linda Blair look-alike too, Film at 11.
Seems like more are being drawn out too. I hope they rotate flights, appearance and seats.
Well, Sept 11 anniversary is coming up soon.

Flight to Chicago lands in Maine
BANGOR, Maine Another trans-Atlantic flight has been diverted.
Officials say the flight from Manchester, England to Chicago has landed instead in Bangor, Maine.
A spokeswoman for the Federal Aviation Administration says the American Airlines flight was diverted for security reasons. She provided no additional information.
Police confirm there's been an incident at the airport, but they're also not elaborating.
Federal agents are on their way.
A reporter for the Bangor Daily News says the plane is on the tarmac with its engines off, and that the local bomb squad has been called.

Depends on what she looks like.
Maybe the terrorists are surveilling planes, trying to figure out how many marshalls there are, and determine how best to neutralize them when there is a real attack. They can have a diversion that forces the marshall to reveal themselves, and then the real attack can proceed, with the Marshall, whose cover is blown, being the first passenger to get attacked. The terrorists would want to know if there are backup marshalls, and if so, how many.
