US lies about Flight 253 “crotch bomber” patsy: summary of the evidence; Yemen attack implication
At least the guy ain’t a commie-pinko, he just said that on the Glenn Beck show!
the earlier group that did the muslim provocation/dry run on Air Tran also had someone in their group filming or taking cell phone pictures of passengers.
Looking for Air Marshalls?
So wtf is this video that there has been mumblings about all this time. if true, the owner has had plenty of time to strike a deal; and/or if bigbromofo has this guy on ice somewhere we should have gotten wind of that by now!’
gb? don’t mention the name of that...opportunist non-talent!
Just because CNN is not reporting information doesn’t mean they don’t have information.
We can be sure that if anything they know would negatively impact the One, we will never get that info from CNN.
I believe from the context of the article that “the owner” is in league with the terrorist. It certainly would be odd to happen to have a camcorder readily available during the last part of the flight.
BTW, the author makes a big deal about how “most everyone has a cell phone with camera or video capabilities”, ignoring, incredibly, the long established ban on cell phone use during flights.
The Las Vegas ‘DEMOCRAT????? Examiner! Nothing like putting it right out there for everyone to see!! I’ll bet you a million they’ve never EXAMINED a DemonRat in their history!!
I admit I have a dog in the fight, but has anyone else noticed that there are a number of newsworthy stories that break on Examiner.com? The Citizen Journalist is getting the implications of the news far more than the MSM, and connecting the dots the MSM refuses to even recognize.
Isn’t that interesting?
Uh? It's merely two button presses away on most cell phones. ...ignoring, incredibly, the long established ban on cell phone use during flights.
You're funny. If you've flown in the last 10 years, you would know that the stews even tell you to put your phone where you can reach it without getting up because they allow you to use it while taxiing after landing. It's in 9 out of 10 biz travellers' shirt/coat pockets. I'm surprised there's only one video, frankly.
Oh, and remember "Let's Roll?" That was overheard by Beamer's wife from his cell phone which he and others used to confirm what was happening.
I think they’re talking about an actual stand-alone camcorder, not a cell phone with video capabilities.
How long did the whole incident take, that’s a question too. Most cell phones take at least ten seconds to boot up. If it looks like somebody’s trying to blow up the plane, my first thought is not going to be, hey, I’m going to turn on my cell phone and stare it for ten or fifteen seconds, then I’ll fumble with the keyboard so I can take a movie of whatever is happening thirty seconds from now.
It had to be a passenger on the flight. We can be certain they have all been tracked down. Which one held the video cam?
everyone on the plane knew they were going to die at that point. who on the plane is going to be telling people not to use their phones, and who was going to be wasting what little time they had left filming instead of saying goodbye to their loved ones?
Language appears to be changing at an alarming rate.
Are you really that uninformed about phone tech, jiggy?
Not everyone has their phone off when they're supposed to...haven't you ever watched what people do on an airplane? The people with Blackberries/iPhones put them in "flight mode" where the phone transceiver is off, but the rest of the PDA/cam function great.
I think they’re talking about an actual stand-alone camcorder, not a cell phone with video capabilities.
Well, ok. You can think whatever you wish.
But since they don't even know where this guy is, who he was, or what he looked like, I'm pretty sure this article doesn't accurately convey the classification of a video recorder.
"Does it use cassettes, or SD cards or internal flash or what, sir?" is not a question I suspect anyone on board was asking the fella. A few GB flash memory could record the entire flight at low camera-phone resolutions.
Sam,
As a side note. You seem to be informed about video camcorders. I am planning on purchasing a new DVD camcorder to replace my old mini 8 camcorder. Any suggestions on the new technology our there today?
TSA Confiscates Boy’s Play-Doh at New Orleans Airport
Tuesday, January 05, 2010
ST. LOUIS, Mo. Extra security at the airport in New Orleans has cost one small boy a Christmas gift from his grandma.
On a post-Christmas flight out of New Orleans last week, the TSA confiscated young Josh Pitneys Play-Doh.
“You know all you have to worry about is it getting in the carpet a small problem to have as opposed to a child who is entertained for half an hour,” said the childs mother Christy Pitney.
“I had the kids and my husband was there with all our bags, she continued. Josh and I were sitting, getting our shoes on and, my husband kind of motioned to us and said - they took our Play -Doh.”.

It would also be odd to film an event that you *thought* was going to bring down the aircraft...
LOL. No...I'm no conssumer products expert!
But do surf the web for news from CES 2010 this week in Las Vegas.
I'm sure all the latest features are being press-released there.
And think about hard-disk cams instead of direct to DVD. You do want to edit out some of the vid, no? Why not download it to your pc, save what you like, crop the "is it recording" blurbs, and burn that to a coherent watchable DVD for the kids/friends.
