And with Al Qaeda presence in Milan so strong they would know the weaknesses of the local airspace.

Well....I heard that it was from Switzerland and flying to Rome. But if he was flying from Slovenia to Rome, why was he near Milan??? From what I can see on my globe, he would be almost on a due west course to get to Milan, but if he was supposed to be headed to Rome, he would have been on a SW course...

Interesting that these European attacks are so slow to mention the politically incorrect word of terrorism. Hell, the Germans are just now warning up to the fact that the propane truck was a bomb. UBL is going to have a field day over there.

"And America is continuing to allow immigration from Terrorist Nations because?"

Why, to shore up Social Security and satisfy the demand for H1-B code jockeys, and Slurpees.

There is no mechanical problem I can think of that could cause a plane to fly uncontrollably into the tallest building in Milan.

I can't think of any either. When you consider that there were no passengers, the "acciednt" happened on the 25th floor (if you allow 15 feet per floor), that's at 375 feet above the ground, and that the pilot flew the plane in straight and level. Fox news had a witness who was reporting that the plane had to drop altitude in order to hit the building. The SOS call was a distraction.

>It was a flight from Slovenia to Milan. (FOXNEWS)

The damage looks terrible. At the very least, this plane must have been loaded with fuel... Does anyone know what the mileage might be from Slovenia to Italy?

FYI:

Mildly amusing the first time. You should have quit while you weren't behind.

Its too bad that on FR we have a group of sorry bastards who have no sense of discretion, no shame.

Pipe down, por favor. Some people handle situations different than you.

Funny that this happened right after a new video of OBL was released a few days ago. Maybe it was a signal...?

youre a little off base there Bo Diddly....read back over this thread...you guys are freaking out...Is Orson Wells on this thread? The Islamic Fundamentalist arent going to waste a perfectly good suicide pilot on an empty tire building at 6pm in Milan Italy. Now if they crashed into Vatican City it may be cause for alarm. Planes do crash into buildings sometimes.

Your 1-2-3 logic is unassailable.

Go to the head of the class.
