67. I'm not saying it was a missile, I am saying it was unlikely to be

a Boeing 757 at that speed and that attack angle.

Like I said in the original post, other types of planes are built to fly fast and low to the ground.

Also, wouldn't having the flaps UP cause the nose to go up? And also, I have to wonder how well an amateur terrorist pilot could control the wing flaps. The settings have to be just right for a flat approach.
