I don’t know how the NY airports are laid out...but here the fuel is stored in tanks far, far from the general public. The planes are fueled from either small trucks or small pipelines under the tarmac. Perhaps the MSM is inflating the story a bit? :)
Geeeesh! You should ask Fox News. They've been covering this ALL day - EVERY little detail!
Watching the news since (and I mean the news not the breathless hype on Fox), they were talking. They had no access to materials and no access to means to complete said ‘threat’. Maybe they should have asked their FBI attachment to supply the materials and then asked the FBI agent to lead any action...that seems to work (i.e. pizza boy at Ft. Dix)
