And, of course, no physical description of the suspects --

If they were blonde haired, over 60, bring em in for grilling.

Scandinadians, no doubt?

Red Alert, Charlie Brown is in a tan PT Cruiser!

>...a tan PT Cruiser with Canadian license plates

Hmmm. Trish is Canadian--

I think she should be interrogated immediately. And, if everyone else is busy with weekend stuff, I guess I'll be available to tackle the job...

A tan PT Cruiser with Canadian license plates

The occupants of the vehicle were seen by airport security staff taking pictures of aircraft flight operations, aircraft fuel services and the Raytheon aircraft maintance facilities over a "prolonged period of time" according to a Raytheon employee. When the people were approached by airport security, they ran to the PT Cruiser and “recklessly” left the parking lot according to the same witness.

This sounds more like rich kids/Euro plane spotters than anything else. Embry Riddle is letting out for the summer and it would not surprise me one bit if this was just a car load of Canuks Yuppie Liberal rich kids rolling into town, snapping photos of some jets and heading on home.

When I attended ERAU there was a lot of Canadian and European kids there who’s parents we very wealthy, these kids usually drove nice cars and lived in off campus houses or apartments their parents rented or bought for them.

I somehow doubt this is terrorist related… maybe tourist related, but not terrorist related.

That Cessna stolen from Daniel Field (Augusta, GA) is still missing. It was reported stolen about June 9.

Also, yesterday there was a report that agents were looking for a black Toyota (Baja, MX plates) reportedly hauling 800 lbs of cyanide in the San Diego area.

Seems alot of things are going on.

Good grief!

No wrecks on the way out, eh?

(Hint: Try "recklessly". The root word, "reck", comes from the Old Norse word "roekja", to have/take care).

I'm always amused by this misspelling (which is why I bothered to post a spelling correction). One time I actually saw a truck on the freeway that had a professionally printed sign on the back that said "Report wreckless driving to 1-800-XXX-XXXX". I was tempted to call the number and say, "I'm calling to report that your truck hasn't had a wreck yet, just as the sign asked me to", but I didn't think they'd get the joke.

Oh, crap! Charlie Brown Field is about a mile and a half from where I sit! Incoming planes usually scream by the apartment complex where I live! I'm keeping my eyes open...

This is a strange report. I've been reading one of Margaret Truman's latest mysteries. It's quite strange - has 3 airplanes shot out of the sky in one day (I think this was written before 9/11). But one of the sub-plots at this point is throwing suspicion on the Canadians. It's very weird - as tho' the fiction I'm reading today is bleeding over into reality....

Charlie Brown is where the Governor and Lt. Governor's planes are located.

...they ran to the PT Cruiser and “wrecklessly” left the parking lot...

There are two things that make it likely these are Al-Queda or some similar group. (1) They were in a vehicle with Canadian plates (Canada: the breeding ground for so many vermin).
(2) They are incredibly stupid, and make terrorism much more complicated than it needs to be, which seems to be a fortunate trait of Al-Queda. (Doesn't mean they aren't dangerous - sooner or later fools get lucky).

Atlanta s Charlie Brown Municipal Airport

How classy. Do they have a "Pig Pen Potty"? A "Linus Lounge"?

The shoulda named it after Rocky and Bullwinkle. At least Rocky was a pilot,and there was nothing lame about the cartoon.

Charlie Brown Municipal Airport? GOOD GRIEF!
