No radar in that part of Africa, I share your difficulty in believing that you could hide a plane transferring it to 2-3 locations..but maybe it was planned ahead of time..

If Libya was still in the terrorism business, they might be able to hide it at one of the Colonel's Air Force bases... but after finally shelling out millions to get Lockerbie and the French airline bombs settled, I don't see him setting himself up for another round of world comdemnation by playing host to an Al-Queda airline suicide mission.

Where does that leave? Sudan? Maybe... but surely we have assetts in place now looking for it. If we don't the Brits do.

Now I don't know if I believe the story of this thread, but it is not hard to "hide" a large plane in the desert.

"I share your difficulty in believing that you could hide a plane "

Maybe you never heard of the large bombers from WWII in the Sahara. They were discovered over the years since WWII. They sat in relatively plain view in the desert. NO one saw them for DECADES. B25's B24's B17's.

They were finally found... after decades... but if this story were true we don't have decades.
