Here is the link from a local paper? It seems it was found and then lost again?

Weird story eh? Hard to tell who is who in all that tangled mess.

Just follow the money!

It could very well be used in the next "terrorist attack."

So it's now a fuel tanker!
Wonder how feasible it would be to fill those tanks will bio/chemical stuff and go spraying.

Britman - on the whole such tanks would be held internal to the aircraft. Such a spraying mission would require external delivery mechanisms - crop spraying arms etc. On a jet these i would suspect these to be pretty much useless due to the the backdraft of the jets exhausts. A much better aircraft for the job would be a C-130 such as those used in spraying disperal chemicals used during Oil spils.

The threat of the "fuel tanker" scenario is the fuel being used as an explosive medium - the so called "fuel air bomb" used I believe in Dresden during WW2 - correct me if im wrong. The theory is - crash the plane thereby vaporising the fuel then detonate some explosive - creating a fire wall to rival that of conventional nukes.
