Model plane 'blitz plot'

AL-QAEDA planned to use model planes in bombings, the Old Bailey heard yesterday.
Supergrass Mohammed Babar — giving evidence against an alleged UK terror gang — told of his meeting with a man in Pakistan who was working on the idea.
Babar said Canadian Mohammed Momin Khawaja and his brother were working on a satellite-navigated model airplane that could be fitted with explosives.
Ringleader Omar Khyam, 24, wanted to launch a string of bombings in Britain targeting pubs, clubs, and train stations on the same day, Babar said.
Babar, 31, alleged: "He wanted to do multiple bomb attacks — either simultaneously or one after another."
Babar claimed one of Khyam’s fellow plotters Salahuddin Amin, had five to seven detonators which Khyam had paid to have smuggled into Britain.
Khyam, Amin and five others deny terror charges, including conspiracy to cause explosions.
Khawaja is awaiting trial in Canada. The case continues
