I was in CMB recently and its a pretty eerie feeling at the airport with the only grim reminder of the attack being several parts of aircraft notably two Airbus tails with a pale blue painted over the logo. These and other burnt parts sit alongside the civil maintenance hangar. Taxiing in (and out) made me believe that attacks could strike at anytime and slow moving aircraft on the ground and in the air are sitting targets.
