Guest imported_b0b Posted June 19, 2003 Share Posted June 19, 2003 Got this off the BBC website: (shorten version) African hunt for stolen Boeing The plane has not been seen for four weeks The United States says it is working with African governments to try to find a stolen passenger jet that it fears may end up being used by terrorists. White House spokesman Ari Fleischer admitted the US had few leads over who was behind the theft of the plane, from an airport in Angola last month, but was keen to gather any information available. "We don't have any reliable assessments about what this portends, what it could be, who may be behind it. But it is an issue that is being worked on," he said. The paper quoted American officials as saying that - in the worst case scenario - the plane could be used in an 11 September-style attack. Mystery The Boeing 727 took off from the Angolan capital on 25 May after being at the airport for 14 months. When it started taxiing down the runway, the radio control tower tried to make contact with the pilot, but there was no response and nothing has been seen of the plane since. Since then, US spy satellites have taken pictures of remote airstrips throughout Africa and US diplomats have been seeking the aircraft. Originally owned by American Airlines, when the 727 was the world's best selling passenger jet, the plane was subsequently leased and subleased by a number of people and companies. -- I have this image in my head of the dude hotwiring it by touching two wires under the dashboard then flying off.

SteveAustin Posted June 19, 2003 Share Posted June 19, 2003 thats fucked up that someone can just waltz onto the tarmac and make off with a 727. My question is....after it was up in the air...did they not track it? They DO have radar...right? Unreal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a 727 in my neighborhood, but its been spray painted black with orange stripes. It also has different wheels and the windows are tinted...so it can't be the missing one.
