What I wonder is if this is real. It wouldn't surprise me if the government put this out there to spread more fear and control over our airports and use of "private" aircraft. I don't trust some of the tennants in our hangar now, let alone some Arab looking dude. I don't need the government telling me to make sure my ride is safe and secure. Every pilot does that anyway. I have no doubt that our government really issued this warning. Pretty soon you won't be able to wipe your ass unless you screened your toilet paper first.

We can't have the gubbermint connecting the dots before the nice muslims surprise us again, now can we?

Just act like your normal self. Your craft won't be stolen due to any of your inattentiveness.

How, realistically, could a jihadist "destroy" private luxury aircraft? It seems to me that the best way would be to --(idea deleted by the original poster to avoid giving a really good idea to any nice muslim reading this site)--. All the locked hangers in the world won't protect against that. All the laws on the books won't prevent it.
