As I've been saying, the next suicide airliner attack will be a professional saudi pilot in a saudi plane. Best to ban any Middle Eastern airliners from overflying or landing near urban centers in the USA.

A close look (2nd is a blowup of the first)
at a small portion of the Saudi flight Atrocities from 911.

Let's start with the basics: Taxiing 101.

They'll be able to save on costs by skipping the "landing" part of the training.

On a more serious note, from what I remember in discussion from earlier, I think the hi tech flight simulators used in airliner training aren't all that easy to come by, I hope that given the state of the world that the US government declares these simulators military equipment and bans their export.

[snippy_about_it]

See http://www.e-telescope.gr/English/World/world_en_130901.htm for the role simulators played in the 9-11 WTC attacks.

[Toidylop]

Good!!! It's all in ONE place. We won't have to chase them around...

,,, route all flights ex Saudi and the Emirates thru Kuala Lumpur and clear them thru the Marshall Islands. That will keep pressure off Europe and the UK - as well as revenue, but who cares? Trans-ship them to US carriers at the Marshall Islands stage and load their fares accordingly.

Israeli air traffic doesn't get hi-jacked, so they could remain with their present operational routing.

Sooner or later, the middle-east will be one vast radioactive glass desert. The sooner the better.

"It will be one of the most modern pilot training centres in the world," said Mohammed Abdullah al-Angari, general manager of the Projects and Trading Company, a private firm contracted by Saudi Arabian Airlines (Saudia) to build the centre.

And you can get your pilot's license in half the time and for half the cost of comparable schools! (Landing lessons sold separately.)

[LaGrone]

I honestly detest the Saudis. IMHO they are more responsible for terrorism than any other country.Drop Dead WAHABIS!

[Texbob]

Once the school is completed, the Saudi's can send sucide dive bombers all over the world.

"It will be one of the most modern pilot training centres in the world," said Mohammed Abdullah al-Angari, general manager of the Projects and Trading Company, "we hope to to show the students how not to slaughter thousands and thousands of inosent people."
