No. Too heavy. Most airplanes are aluminium and non-metal composites.

Yes, but a major EMI pulse could easily knock out a plane's flight control systems.

True, but rewatch the pilot episode. Something grabbed hold of the plane, then it was torn apart.

There's also the little detail of anyone surviving a fall from 30,000 feet, let alone 50-60 people. It wasn't pulled down, it was lowered.
