I was thinking "bows" = traffic cloverleafs. But since I couldn't come up with a motive, I blew that off.

I am an Intrument rated Commercial pilot. I've always been concerned with two points about 9-11, both of which were communicated to the FBI long ago:

1. If 9-11 was pre-planned, how did they ensure good weather? These private pilot jet jock wannabes could fly well enough to crash into a building, but there is no way in hell they could have flown jets in IFR conditions.

2. How did they ensure empty planes? ALL of the AA flights going to just about anywhere right now are oversold. Who inside checked the loads for them??

Tin foil?

Anyway, people are flying more now than at anytime since 9-11. Flights are packed and we have OT 18 hours a day if desired. Fare sales are rampant. It won't take much to burst that bubble.

I agree about the bridges. Two bows=two bridges. Maybe bow as in bow and arrow, rather than bowtie.

I was thinking "bows" = traffic cloverleafs. But since I couldn't come up with a motive, I blew that off.

Lots of meanings for "bow." Shape/Curve - Ribbon - Tie - Violin - Bow & Arrow - Boat - What one does after a performance...

>> how did they ensure good weather?

Buying tickets on multiple flights for multiple days.

>> How did they ensure empty planes?

Early reports around that time indicated that many tickets had been sold but no one showed up for the flights. nolinks, sorry, just remember reading it.

Terrorism Suspect Returns To Ohio
No Hearing Date Scheduled Yet

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- The Somali immigrant accused of plotting with an admitted al-Qaida member to blow up a Columbus-area shopping mall has been discharged from a federal psychiatric facility evaluating his competence to stand trial.

Nuradin Abdi was returned to the Franklin County jail Wednesday after being examined for more than a month at the Federal Medical Center in Rochester, Minn. A federal judge sent him there in June for the evaluation to determine if he understands the charges against him and can help in his defense because of his bizarre behavior in detention and in court.

No hearing date on his competency has been set. The U.S. attorney's office, his attorney and the judge's office said Thursday they had not yet received the evaluation report.

Abdi, 32, is charged with lying on immigration forms and conspiring to support terrorists. The Somali refugee who owned a now-closed cell phone store in Columbus has a wife and three children.

Prosecutors said in court documents that Abdi left the United States briefly for military-style training in Ethiopia, and when he returned discussed the never-acted-on mall plot with Iyman Faris, the imprisoned former Columbus truck driver who pleaded guilty to helping terrorists.

If convicted, Abdi could get up to 80 years in prison.

A suspicious device found Thursday in a piece of luggage led to an evacuation of part of one terminal at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport. There were no reports of anyone hurt.

Authorities say the item was discovered this afternoon during a routine baggage screening. Airport officials say the device, which resembles a pipe, was discovered during screening at Terminal C, near Gate 21. The area was evacuated, as a precaution, and a perimeter has been set up.

AA Terminal C.

The more I read about all the odd occurrences going on yet again today I think the ROP is really trying hard to stir up trouble and diversions.

I can't remember which BL tape was released with him saying to all the "good muslims brothers" (aka POS pigs) to act and look suspicious and to create diversions so our police Intel and Homeland Security folks are kept busy while the real plan is put into action.

RR Did your sister eat out while there? She probably did, but what did she eat and where? I hope and pray she is ok.

Flutters, if you are talking about the viral enteritis, no, I haven't heard of any cases out of the ordinary, nothing like what is described here. I'll check around.
