It wasn't a 767...It was a BUS type of plane.

All the news channels over here said 767 - maybe we have a different name than you guys.

Apparently the plane took off from Logan Airport in Boston.

The news channels here were reporting 767 at first too. They now say it's an air bus which is bigger than the 767 which is a huge plane.

Depends on which version of A300. 767 and A300 measure about the same. The plane took off from JFK.

255 people on plane.

They just said it was taking off when it crashed....I think if it was terrorists it could have been intended for NewYork again - Queens is just a couple of miles short of New York which was the line it was travelling.

I'm pretty sure that he did admit at least thats what msnbc said. 246 pass, and 9 crew believed to be on board to dominican republic but some witnesses said they saw something fall out and flames from the back of the plane. FAA thinks it was the engine

Ouch...the pictures look really messy on TV Frown They are saying at the moment that they dont think it was terrorists, but I am putting it at 99% that it was them. I hope this law goes through soon where they can arrest suspected terrorists without a trial Frown, before to many more lives are lost!

Engine failure. The engine fell out of the plane about 100m before the crash site.

Yeah. i wouldn't say i'm 99% sure but maybe 33-50% sure of the possibility it was them. The difference with this would be there were no calls made, there was no detection of any problems. Pilots didn't say anything as far as i know.

Oh. btw... it was in a london telegraph that he said he did the sept 11 attacks, and that those were legitimate targets and that the people who died were not civilians but working for the american system. What an idiot!

Unfortunatly, as Eliot said a while back with the sept 11th attacks, he is actually not an idiot, but quite a mastermind. REALLY scary Frown

My guess is that a terrorist blew himself up on the plane.

That would account for air traffic control having no info from the pilots and would also account for the explosion/fireball and bits falling off the plane.

Also it is possible to get through the metal detectors at airports with dynamite strapped to yourself.

Radio contact between pilot/air traffic control was lost 4 mins after take off

Thats not true. I heard that there was another terrorist a while back that had this same idea to take an american plane and crash it. That was not his idea but he did carry it out. He's not a mastermind but just has money to carry out plans made by real "masterminds".

Oh, i didn't hear about that. How could it be terrorists though, because they said American Airlines had already changed their cockpit door structure to be more secure. Unless of course that is when the "terrorists" could have detonated some explosive. Then engine failure definitely couldn't have been the only factor. In any case, for a professional built plane like that, the engine doesn't just fall out so yes dynamite could have been a reason.
