Federal agents force small plane to land in Texas
DALLAS (AP) — A group of suspected illegal immigrants was being questioned early Tuesday after federal officials forced their single-engine plane to land here.

The Cessna carried at least four suspected illegal immigrants who were detained along with the craft's pilot by homeland security officials in connection with a possible smuggling operation, according to newspaper and broadcast reports.

Online records of the Federal Aviation Administration show the 20-year-old plane is co-owned by Afzal Hameed of Dover, Del. The other co-owner is listed as Alyce S. Taylor, but no address is given for her.

The FAA records state that the plane's last three-year registration was filed in 1999, and that the agency received no response in 2002 after mailing new registration forms to Hameed.

1. I'm surprised the article isn't more in depth

From 5 minutes of googling, I found that Afzal Hameed and Alyce Taylor own the Alpha Tango Flight school.

"Abdul Hakim Murad, who was convicted several years ago of a plot to crash a suicide plane into CIA headquarters, trained at Alpha Tango Flying Services in San Antonio, Texas. The flight school is owned by Hamid Afzal."

http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=27916

"After the disaster of the first 4 days of the hearings of the 911 Commission, which included obvious lies on the Timeline, it became now very clear, that the 911Victims can't expect an honest investigation without help from "outside".

The following list suggest therefore some witnesses, who might help in the investigation of Sep11th in plausible Subpoenas." (Article goes on to include the owners of the Alpha Tango Flight School)
