Officials Weighed Shooting at Errant Plane
By LARA JAKES JORDAN, Associated Press Writer 37 minutes ago

As a wayward Cessna


What really amazes me is that there will apparently be no certificate

action
taken against these two nimrods. Not only did they barge right into
probably the best known restricted/prohibited airspace in the world,

but,
according to one of the scrambled F16 pilots, they continued on this

errant
course for several minutes while the interceptors were crossing paths

and
ejecting flares. What in God's name did they think was going on?

Just how
stupid do you have to be?



Maybe they were told the wrong vector by controllers. Or maybe they
were Homeland Security agents to test the system? Just kidding.
