Another black eye for GA

The question is how near the plant was he? I know the airport where
the guy is based and it happens to be near, yeah you guessed it, a
nuclear power plant. On a XC to Reading PA after my checkride I flew
right over the airport and the stacks of the power plant were about 4
miles off my left wing. So flying into Pottstown puts you in the
vicinity of a nuclear power plant no matter what.

Well, I didn't see how it was covered on Faux News, but on
CBS (which apparently now stands for Complete Bull Sh*t)
they asked rhetorically why the Cherokee wasn't intercepted
by fighters and shot down.

Yep, that trumps the "NUCLEAR POWER PLANT!!!!" hand waving from Faux. It
will be interesting to see how they top it.

Was, or wasn't he, flying adjacent to a NUCLEAR POWER PLANT? You know...the
worst possible security risk?

Dan, you sound like you're trying to fill in the blanks of your
pre-conceived notions.

Too bad their lack of omniscience missed that little point in the news
_brief_.

Let's see: CBS suggests he be shot down by an F-16 -- Fox make the point
that he flew neara nuclear plat (which he in fact did).

So......
