Yes, it's silly for the gov't to scatter like hens when a Cessna approaches, but that's not the point. Not when its possible for a C150 to carry a small A bomb in a suitcase. and how is this different from having the gov't scatter like hens when a small car approaches? It's not like you have to approach very closely with an A-bomb. With the yield of an A-bomb that you could carry in a C150, you'd need to. The largest nuclear weapon you could practically carry in a C150 would be something like a Davy Crockett. This was a nuclear bazooka round weighing in at 76lbs, with a (user selectable) yield of between 10t and 250t of TNT. You'd have to get it within 0.5km if *airburst* to be effective - if exploded on the ground, its destructive range would be very short (maybe a city block) - you'd have to drive right up to the gates of the White House. Of course if they had the Davy Crockett launcher too, they would only have to get within 3 miles or so. -- Dylan Smith, Castletown, Isle of Man Flying: http://www.dylansmith.net Frontier Elite Universe: http://www.alioth.net "Maintain thine airspeed, lest the ground come up and smite thee" |
