There was an F-16 back in 98 that went down about 100 miles from my friends FFG...it flew over a CG and started going crazy. The pilot ejected but froze in the cold water off Korea before he got picked up. http://www.f-16.net/news_article325.html

I don't think a mobile blocking device would have enough power to mess up a 777... but sure makes you think.
