That is true. *However AIR FORCE INSTRUCTION 11-202 pretty much
parallels the FARs.



Perhaps the point though is that the FAA cannot take action against
the F-16 pilot. Perhaps if he has a civilian ticket they can suspend
it but he may not even care. In anycase, I just hope that the
visibility of this has been enough to discourage this type of incident
from happening in the future. I fly with my 2 young sons in the back.
I would be pretty upset if we were assulted in such a way.
