The Herald offers this account of the terrorists' modus operandi: "They started killing stewardesses in the back of the plane as a diversion. The pilot came back to help and that is how they got into the cockpit," said the source. . . . The suspects had no guns, but used shaving kits and other carry-on luggage to smuggle knife-like weapons made up of plastic handles embedded with razor blades, sources familiar with last night's developments said.
