Oh please, they are not that stupid or without resources. They could probably buy as much high explosive as they could stuff into any size plane. If they wanted a kamikaze bomb, they would buy cheap and big. If they want a cropduster, they have something nastier in mind. I find it very disturbing that lost cropduster has not been found. It's also BS that crop dusters are short-range: the Ayers can be reconfigured to hold fuel in the spray tank, and was flown between South America and the U.S. on anti-drug missions. And it is lightly armored. Very unpleasant in the wrong hands.

And I'm sure they could have obtained that much high explosives without attracting any attention at all right?

Much easier to fill them with fuel.

I think there are plenty of easier ways to spread some sort of biological toxin. Use of a cropduster as a kamikaze missile fits the facts. It seems like Atta and Co. were researching this topic around the time they were preparing the 9-11 attack. No terrorists outside the 9-11 cell have been linked with cropdusters, I think they were considering use of them as bombs at some point.
