The truth may never be known what happened on that flight. As with most unsung heroes, there are never any witnesses who survive to tell their stories of their heroism. But there is always one Witness Who sees and remembers.
On a cynical note, one gets the impression that if Patriot were on that flight and heard of the intended target, he'd be the one navigating it in for a bullseye. Sheesh.
Many disruptors have shown their true colors today.
Stay well.
