No one has been shot down by black helicopters or F-16s. Imagine the fallout if someone were. Not in the U.S. - yet. This incident happened in 2001 in Peru and the CIA allegedly was involved: http://findarticles.com/p/articles/m...18/ai_75089670 http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpag...gewanted=print "Peru's air force denied April 23 that it did anything wrong in an incident that led to the death of a missionary and her daughter when their plane was shot down April 20 in the South American country. But friends and relatives of the missionaries said they were fired on without warning. A pontoon-equipped single-engine Cessna carrying missionaries affiliated with the Pennsylvania-based association of Baptists for World Evangelism was forced to crash-land in the Amazon River after a Peruvian fighter jet opened fire on the plane, which it mistakenly thought was transporting illegal drugs. Missionary Veronica Bowers and her seven-month-old daughter, Charity, were killed. Pilot Kevin Donaldson underwent surgery after being seriously wounded in both legs in the incident. Reportedly, the jet strafed the survivors as they clung to the plane's burning wreckage in the river." Here's a followup story some months later of the investigation findings: http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIP.../02/se.02.html |
