Today, Friday September 6th County Examiner awakened to news of the arrest of an American Airlines employee at Miami International Airport for the willful damaging, destroying, disabling or wrecking of an aircraft.
Unlike the media who simply refuse to publish or link to court documents, County Examiner uploaded a copy of the criminal complaint here so you can read it yourself.
My hubby was on duty as an air traffic controller on 9/11 and with thousands of ATC's and FAA employees across the United States and Canada facilitated the landing of all domestic and inbound international aircraft without incident on that fateful day.
We take ANY news of aircraft, airport sabotage seriously.

Analysis to follow.
Update:
1. As you read the complaint, one of the first things you'll notice is the use of airport surveillance video to identify American Airlines mechanic Abdul-Majeed Marouf Ahmed Alani
2. Alani claimed he tampered with the aircraft hoping to cause a delay or flight cancellation so he could get overtime work and pay, as he was upset about a financial impact on him due to stalled union negotiations.
