29. I was under the impression from previous reports
that the plane had just landed from Colombia. Apparently it was set to take off from Miami; is that correct?

That fact puts the Air Marshall's actions in an entirely different light. The passengers were screened so there would be absolutely no possibility that anyone on board would have any sort of weapon. (a little :sarcasm:)

It is not terribly unusual for someone to want to leave a flight at the last minute; in that scenario killing the guy would be pretty dumb because you just lost your chance to find out where he put the bomb if there was one.

At first I thought the AM did exactly what he was supposed to do. But in light of this article, he was a little to quick on the trigger to say the least.
