I don't think al Qaeda would place much hope in the chance a SAM might take out an aircraft. Their track record is in large dramatic events and will show patience to plan and execute them.
A random pot shot by a small group not on the radar would be very difficult to stop in advance.
Like I said, it's a big concern, but I'm not sure if even the scenario became true would be a game changer. The Semtex might be even more of a concern.
Naive and biased in the same thread. I love it when you get all snippy
