"I was just referring to the discovery of all those little holes drilled behind the mirrors in lavatories in various jets"(jerseygirl)

I mentioned Col. Mendoza at the time you replied, Mendoza didn't mention drilling holes into the cockpit. He mentioned a lot of other important stuff about airplanes though. I thought you were implying a connection between the drilled holes and Mendoza.

I read the articles about the guy drilling holes into the cockpit via the LAV and the door was kicked in or something like that. That is an important development if true. I want to know: DID IT REALLY HAPPEN? Why don't we see the evidence of this(pictures of said holes, kicked in door, etc.)? Where are the people that witnessed the door being kicked in? I don't think the Lib/demon media could keep it down this long if true. Could they?

It's pretty crazy. Note that airport workers can bypass security. [Pilots and flight attendants can not]

Snip from the Washington Times.....first part was the woman reporting the so called musician group.


The pilot confirmed Mrs. Jacobsen's experience was "terribly alike" what flight attendants reported on the San Juan flight.
He said there is "widespread knowledge" among crew members these probes are taking place.

A Middle Eastern passenger attempted to videotape out the window as the plane taxied on takeoff and, when told by a flight attendant it was not permitted, "gave her a mean look and stopped taping," said a written report of the San Juan incident by a flight attendant.

The group of six men sat near one another, pretended to be strangers, but after careful observation from flight attendants, it was apparent "all six knew each other," the report said.

"They were very careful when we were in their area to seem separate and pretended to be sleeping, but when we were out of the twilight area, they were watching and communicating," the report said.

The men made several trips to the bathroom and congregated in that area, and were told at least twice by a flight attendant to return to their seats. The suspicious behavior was relayed to airline officials in midflight and additional background checks were conducted.

A second pilot said that, on one of his recent flights, an air marshal forced his way into the lavatory at the front of his plane after a man of Middle Eastern descent locked himself in for a long period.

The marshal found the mirror had been removed and the man was attempting to break through the wall. The cockpit was on the other side.
The second pilot said terrorists are "absolutely" testing security.

"There is a great degree of concern in the airline industry that not only are these dry runs for a terrorist attack, but that there is absolutely no defense capabilities on a vast majority of airlines," the second pilot said.
