I hope they don't shoot that one down... ala KAL


(Just kidding - great set, Canuck - Thanks!)

Yes, KAL was just utter madness. I'm surprised that the incident died down
in the manner it did and so little was said or done about it.

Don't forget, there was also another KAL to be shoot down by the Soviets in
1978. It was a Boeing 707 flying from Paris to Seoul and was shot down near
Murmansk on the Kola Peninsula after another display of poor airmanship by
KAL pilots.
