if you have a good scanner in So Cal, tune to 271.0, set it in AM mode and listen to Norad intercept Air France flight 68, due at LAX 515pm

two F16s from AZ current refueling off Pacific

I got the map once, but when I've reloaded twice, it hasn't come up.... Could we be overwhelming the system at the moment?

Why would terrorists use incoming foreign planes? No on-board fuel left!

Terror does not necessarily require an airborne bomb. Killing people by crashing a plane full of people into a shopping mall is effective too. Since France is a country of ingrates, who apparently haven't figured this thing called "security" out yet; it's a great place to go shopping for an aircraft full of cowards.

I'm sorry, but you're wrong. The planes don't land on vapors. They have plenty of fuel left.

Moreover, if you'll review the footage of Flight 232 (DC-10) that crashed in Sioux City on July 19 of 1989, you'll get a damn clearer idea of the kind of conflagration that occurs in crashes even when the planes fuel tanks are near empty.

A tank full of fuel ruptures and burns. A tank full of fumes explodes.

Cannot be Idaho. With one hour of flight time left, it must be over northern California.

Maybe they aren't intent on blowing something up this time, but rather on releasing something, i.e. chemical/biological attack.

Seems a little far fetched to me to use a commercial plane for that, but who knows?
