It would be nice if they gave their parameters for the runways on the list. Planes can land on runways a lot shorter than the specifications call for, if safety margins aren’t a consideration. Same thing with range - are they talking about maximum cruising range, or to the last drop range?

Here's my ponderings...Having rendered the passengers "helpless" (gas), they landed, removed the passengers, (I won't say what happened to them) and hopped a small plane (4 of them). Guys are doing cleanup, disposing of the 777 and the passengers.

I think we're talking suitcase bomb...maybe more than one.

Go back to the airport and talk to everyone that was working at the terminal. Look at pictures for something out of whack.

They're going to be hopping small planes and boats until they get to their point of delivery.
