News is it was a light aircraft. Look for NYC to ask for an ADIZ.
Lead article in today New York Times. Quote by Gov. Pataki: "New
Yorks airspace should enjoy the same kind of protections as our
nation's capital."
I was right. Again.
No, you were wrong. NYC is not asking for an ADIZ. Bloomberg said
emphatically that there's no security issue. Others may ask for an ADIZ, but
NYC is not doing so, contrary to your claim.
The feds understand that a NY ADIZ would be irrational. Bloomberg's stance
keeps the irrational step from being politically expedient. That combination
will likely keep it from happening.

Should not have made reference to mayors, but politics, pointing again
to inadequacy of FARs (many articles about how close, legally, you can
fly to a building), and safety of GA flight, including lack of
security.
Reference to mayor asking for ADIZ was wrong. Should have said
policiticians.
