NY incident :-(

Trying to hit an jet with a small piston single is like trying to hit a
bullet with an arrow. It would be interesting to see them try.

I think the point of the news stories right now is that they were going to
do this while both they and the 777 were taxiing, and not while in flight.

In that case, I'd have loaded up a bunch of baggage trolleys and chased after
the 777 with a tug.

That would work quite well, but one of the goals of a "terrorist" is the
psychological effect of the attack. Using the tug and luggage train
wouldn't be nearly as spectacular/sensational as using another airplane.
