So, yeah, targeting "one plane" - thus proving that they CAN is entirely possible.

I've long thought that what two fellows with a beat up old car and a .30-06 rifle did to the capital was horrifying. The odds of any individual getting shot at any given time was infinitesimal, on sniper in an entire metropolitan area, but everyone was steppin and fetchin, serpentine walking and all the rest. Just astonishing how terrorists can use weak bellied liberals and the media to make frenchmen out of all of us.

Thnaks for reminding me of that case!! It is an excellamnt example of how "small" terrorist acts can have a great effect.

If you mean Chief Moose's DC's "sniper". Those gents were using a plain Jane Bushmaster AR-15 clone, in 5.56 X 45, not a 30-06. A 30-06 would have been much messier.
