Jetliner Missing?
Intelligence services have been seeking stolen Boeing 727 for about 3 weeks now. The plane would make a particularly lethal weapon as is was fitted as a tanker, rather than a passenger plane. It could carry a lot of fuel or explosives and would make an efficient missile if a suicide terrorist were at the controls.
A number of explanations have been offered for the plane's disappearance, including that the heist was actually a repossession.
I have my own, based upon Democratic Party reasoning. The plane never really existed in the first place.
