The guy in Minnesota, the "20th Hijacker" would be closer to target - but as I recall the FBI missed the significance of someone who wanted to learn to fly but not to take off or land the plane.

As I recall, the FBI requested a warrant to look at his computer, but the DOJ turned it down. A civil liberties thing, I believe.

I doubt that the case. If the fbi can send a sharp shooter to the wilds of Idaho to take out a mother holding her infant child and get away with it, they can look at a suspected terrorists' computer without anyone's permission.
