Our country waiting to strike.. in a bunch of 777's with pilots that did not go through our Federal Back Ground checks, dont have our Federal Air Marshals on board.. How easy would it be for two foreign undocumented terrorists to go through pilot training? They've had plenty of time..
All they have to do is get a captain and a First Offiver together on the same trip.. and then they can casually fly it into the capital or a football stadium with no one in the back even knowing what happened.

Packed security lines at airports could be vulnerable. Nothing suspicious about someone with carry on suitcases (*jam packed with explosives and ball bearings) and suicide vest.

I think most airlines do a pretty thorough background check. I'd be more worried about them hijacking another plane. The sad thing is I think most of these terrorist receive their flight training right here in the states.

I like how you act like this is some idea that popped into your head this morning, as if this isn't exactly what happened on 9/11.

Pre 9/11? Sure some of the hijackers were trained in the US. But nowadays the flight schools are heavily vetted to spot questionable trainees.

Just went form Austin to Portland Oregon. I literally could of carried whatever the frick i wanted home with me. PDX airport at 6am on a monday was gridlocked, so to break up the line they just walked down asking any and everyone if they had a medical implaint, to follow them past security. We walked past all the metal detectors to a guy with a wand that waived it over my body, when it went off he asked if that was where my implant was, i said yes, and off I went into the airport.

I don't think you have a clue what the process it takes to become a commercial airlines pilot.

Reminds me of that scene in "Airplane' when all the terrorists were walking through the line and they were strip searching an old lady.

There are select connecting airports internationally to be able to fly into the US and I've flown through several and can tell you it's not a cake walk boarding a plane coming back home. This scenario would not happen post 9/11.
