Terrorist Aircraft Consequences



John, 

Re a private inquiry:  I took this as your humorous/faceticious response.

You didn't mean to discount the scenario. (vs. difficulty.) Can you clarify?

This is the only substantial "terrorist threat" (whether by air or ground). 

 

How do others see it?

 

Regards, Jim Muckerheide
