Singapore airspace infringement
Hi Guys

I am a first time poster.

Dont forget that in 2002 the local al Qaeda aligned group JI planned to hijack an aircraft and crash it into Changi Airport. Even a light aircraft crashing into the terminal would have a major effect; hence the concern. Imagine what it would do to the Singapore tourist industry and the use of Changi as a major hub.
