Federal officials suspect that the Nigerian man / would-be terrorist Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab is tied to the al Quaeda network.

The Nigeria man was subdued and arrested after trying to bring down a Delta Airlines A-330-300 jumbo jetliner that was enroute from Amsterdam to Detroit on Christmas Day.

He had explosives hidden under his clothing strapped around his leg after returning back to his seat from one of the craft's bathrooms. The device or lethal powder was originally hidden under special underwear that he wore, at first in front of his private area.

The plane was making its final preps and approach, for it was about to land in Detroit when Umar decided to try to ignite the bomb. The craft landed safely and he was escorted off the vehicle by the Detroit police.

That IS the actual aircraft. It just LOOKS short and stubby because of the way that it was photographed. But his name under the pic ties him with the plane.
