this could not be an twist of fate. no person is going crashing a single pilot airplane in some residential development in ny city whilst approximately 5 years in the past 2 hijacked planes crashed into the twin towers. I advise, i presumed we had our risk-free practices device with the airports all regarded at. First we weren't allowed to hold something medal around those medal detectors, and now we're not even allowed to hold a bottle of water interior those planes.
