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?


Actually, the way I read it, they will not be charged with any criminal
acts. Certificate action is another matter. I doubt that any certificate
action will be taken against a student pilot. The FAA will most likely
suspend the certificate of the PIC for some period of time or until he
receives retraining.
