Miami airline mechanic tampered with American Airlines plane to get overtime pay, feds say. So how many more wannabe jihadis are working on airliners?
Abdul-Majeed Marouf Ahmed Alani, who worked in aircraft maintenance at the American Airlines hangar at Miami International Airport, is charged with willfully damaging, destroying, disabling or wrecking an aircraft, and attempting to do so, according to court documents.

You just know affirmative action helped this underprivileged minority to get hired over a more qualified mechanic. Proof political correctness is dangerous.
He wanted the overtime to send to the folks back home, explosive vests and grenade launchers are expensive you know.
When were the flying lessons to begin?
If his ass had not gotten caught, he very well could have had enough hours to qualify to be in the cockpit based on the movement of the plane alone.
Pretty brilliant on the part of American Airlines to be hiring Muslim aircraft maintenance people. Fills ya with confidence, doesn't it?
They're all over the place.
