Default Ban privately-owned PLANES

RadicalModerate quoted me:
He hit an apartment building for the rich - where apartments start
at over $1 million. Maybe because of that, longtime antigun nut Rep.
Carolyn Maloney demanded that flights over densely-populated areas be
banned.


and replied:
Maloney being a Gun Grabber doesn't invalidate the debate about
general aviation usage over big cities.
I think it would be common sense to disallow inexperienced pilots or
even amateur pilots to overfly major cities.
Perhaps a special license endorsement for "Class B" (big city) airspace
which would require an instrument rating and minimum cume time-in-type
plus minimum time-per-month ( to assure proficiency ) is in order.


I doubt any such special licensing would be meaningful to SKYJACKERS
- who rarely are licensed pilots, anyhow, and killed more people in
Manhattan by "airplane violence" on 9/11 in an hour than all "mass
shootings" combined in American history. That's the point of the
Maloney issue.
