Tri acetone tri peroxide. And even more stupid is that these so called terrorists were going to carry this shit around with them, or worse yet, try to mix it up in the bathroom sink once on board:eyes:

Yeah, right, whatever. That shit is even more unstable than nitroglycerine. One wrong move, one innocent bump, BOOM, off it blows, all at the wrong time.

There are much easier, less volatile, more dependable explosives available. Somehow I doubt that they would choose this one. Even if they're suicide bombers, they still want their package to go off at the right time, not in the airport terminal bathroom.
