I'm not blaming the whole ADIZ fiasco on pilots, it's a ridiculous waste of energy to put on an ineffective show. But the area isn't an unknown any more, flying towards the prohibited airspace (unless they were vectored towards it?) contained within it isn't exactly smart even if you do have a transponder and 2way comms, and things like this make it more difficult on the people who want to but can't figure out how to get rid of it yet not have to admit it was the wrong thing to do in the first place. One of the local stations apparently interviewed the student pilot's wife (by phone). Apparently, he was well aware of the ADIZ and was worried about navigating around it (or through it with the proper squawk). It sounds to me like some kind of simple navigation problem that was allowed to expand to some level of disorientation. This is why a no-fly zone (enforced by deadly force) doesn't make any sense in a free society. Human beings make mistakes from time to time, and we're not living in the Soviet Union. --- Jay -- __!__ Jay and Teresa Masino ___(_)___ http://www2.ari.net/jmasino ! ! ! http://www.oceancityairport.com http://www.oc-adolfos.com |
