No charges are being filed.

By the FBI. Doesn't exclude FAA or others from lining up.


Here's the word from FAA Spokesman William Schumann:

Pilots who violate the ADIZ (so far none have been discovered to be
full-fledged evil-doers, or even to harbor any ill-intent) generally get a
30- to 90-day suspension of their certificate, Shumann said, but each case
is handled individually. The range of possibilities does include revocation.
It might be more understandable that pilots can be tripped up by Temporary
Flight Restrictions that appear with no warning (like those that follow the
president), but it seems it would be tough to miss the ADIZ and the FRZ. The
FRZ has been violated much less often than the ADIZ, Shumann said.

This was published after the LAST incursion (remember the Mooney?) -- no
telling what will happen after this most recent one.
