Default More political BS .... Thanks CNN


wrote in message
...

The general aviation corridors around Manhattan have been "the Wild West,"
said Rep. Anthony Weiner, D-N.Y. He and Sen. Charles Schumer said anyone
flying near the island should be under the supervision of air traffic
controllers, especially in the post-Sept. 11 era.


CNN is responsible for what politicians say?

Actually, what CNN did last night was take a Cirrus up and recreate the
flight including trying to make the turn...the difference is, CNN did it at
2000 feet, which is what sane pilots would do, such that they didn't tangle
their prop in anybody's furniture. I thought that was pretty cool of them.
