    When you think about it, the 767 is your ideal supervillain aircraft:

    - you can plausibly pretend to be operating a chronically bankrupt freight airline

    - it's mostly metal so you can cut holes in the skin to add fun gadgets

    - there's a large pool of semi retired unscrupulous freight pilots

    - it's still modern enough you can take it ~anywhere under ETOPS rules

    If I ever become very wealthy and I buy a struggling freight airline, you better believe at least one of those plans is gonna be filled with the funkiest ELINT/EWAR equipment I can build or get my hands on
