New Evil Grin - you're still focused on the passenger aspect...

Start your trip .. early! on Euphoria Airlines [brought to you by Rapture Associates]. Yes friends, for your safety, convenience and security - the best of that confiscated Sinsemilla is administered by our jack-booted but ever so friendly er 'camouflage suited' Happy Bunnies.


You're forgetting the people in the targets - unless you want to suggest that people starting working for Euphoria Enterprises in the 'big building that is a nice target'.

What happens when the next plane is a cargo jet? (Of course, then the terrorist will have to learn to "take off" - or sneak aboard and wait for the pilot to take off.)

(I still don't understand bin Laden - hell, if he's got the cash he's rumored to have, he could BUY a 757 to fly into a big building.)

New The buyout option
The Sept 11 attack price tag seems to be in the US$200-500k range. A new jet airliner is [link|http://www.boeing.com/commercial/prices/|going to run you] US$80+ million, depending on the options package (air is included, chrome, and sound system extra). A used aircraft could likely be aquired for a fraction of that price, but still an order or two of magnitude more than the cost of the attacks.

Crime pays. Particularly when you're using it to commit more crime.
