Well, by that time, everything south of a large airline is going to be scared to death of going within 100 miles of DC, and the airlines are probally going to insist on on fighter escorts just to ensure no accidents. Heres another idea: Have the airlines land outside DC and pick up a military pilot to proceed into downtown. Big ships do that. My god, you are an idiot. |

However that's not going to be a problem as half the states are refusing to go along with the new drivers license program and the feds say people from those states won't be able to board airliners if they don't, so ... Airline traffic will drop to a dribble and every one will be back to trains and buses anyway. Of course they may require we who fly smaller planes learn to read a map and get a flight briefing before starting out.

So ALL the residents of any state that don't sign on to the new program will be barred from flying on the airlines? And you thing that's really going to happen? I'd like to have you site a federal govt source for that statement so that we can go read it for ourselves. |

I'd like to have you site a federal govt source for that statement so that we can go read it for ourselves. It was in the local newspaper and I don't remember who the official quoted was. The story was out last week via AP with a title of "States May Refuse to go along with Licensing Standard" or something similar. The States are complaining that the federal mandate to the standardized licensing system (with no funding) is more than they can afford. I believe nearly half the states are saying, "no funding, no complying", or if you want it, you pay for it. The article made headlines on many papers and was one of the top stories listed on the Excite news. The quote was some where around the middle of the article. I think the guy was using a bit of coercion, or outright threatening/posturing with the hope that they will comply. He also stated that such states would have to go through much more extensive security checks before boarding (contradicting his previous statement - if they can't board then why the additional security checks) As it was a recent AP article it should still be available on-line if you hit the right search string.. Do I think it'll happen? No, I don't. I think the guy was blowing smoke as the economy could not stand even time for the extra security checks let alone an outright ban.

I believe nearly half the states are saying, "no funding, no complying", or if you want it, you pay for it. A bit more information: It was part of a story on the "uniform licensing" across the states. IOW the National ID card system, but they don't want to callit that. To top it off they want to put machine readable chips in the licenses which wouldn't be quite so bad, but they are going to use RFID tags. The claim is the RFID tags only work at a distance of a few centimeters, but tests show they work well up to about 20 meters with the proper equipment. Just think...you are in Malasia, or Iran, (pick a country), a demonstration starts, and your passport which can be read up to 20 meters (60 feet) is saying...Hey, you with the reader, I'm the American over here!.

All responders so far are all clueless or FAA employees.
You must all work for the "Guvment" huh?? Anyway some clarification for the stupid people. You know who you are. Maybe you don't know who you are??? I did not say STOP ALL AIRCRAFT for 250 miles(For you dip ****s that I hope do not even wash planes besides fly them) I said PROPERLY IDENTIFY THEM AND ROUTE THEM AND TRACK THEM The FAA's JOB for the stupid people again The FAA failed miserably again with the DC chaos just like the 4 airliners who drove hundreds of miles OFF TRACK on the FAA watch during 9/11 DUMMY I NEVER proposed a no-fly(for the stupid people who are blinded by the instant protection of worthless unqualified dead weight in the "Guvment" by calling names) Sometimes, you must listen to people who state not politically correct terms or opinions. Our country was founded on sharp edged speech and opinion MORON(s) UNLESS YOU ARE really Chinese spies However, due to your limited intellectual ability to see past your ass(drunkklansman attack rhetoric etc.)I am no longer responding to stupid people. Drive a cab please not an airplane. Or go get ya a "Guvment" Job You sir, are the IDIOT Scott Moore wrote: DrunkKlingon wrote: Face it, the FAA is on the decline.

![]() DrunkKlingon wrote in message .. . Anyway some clarification .... I did not say STOP ALL AIRCRAFT for 250 miles I NEVER proposed a no-fly The magic buzz word for this is a FRZ or Flight Restricted Zone which is currently 13 to 15 miles around the VOR/DME at Reagan National Airport. I said PROPERLY IDENTIFY THEM AND ROUTE THEM AND TRACK THEM The magic buzzword for this is ADIZ or Air Defense Identification Zone which is currently about a 30 nautical mile radius around Reagan National Airport. Expanding the ADIZ to 100 miles might not be a bad idea. Here is a good map of the current Washington ADIZ and FRZ http://www.richardcrouse.com/crouse/maps.html |
