Officials Weighed Shooting at Errant Plane

As a wayward Cessna



What really amazes me is that there will apparently be no certificate
action taken against these two nimrods.

Huh? Where did you get that? The FAA is planning on revoking the
certificate of the PIC. The student had no legal standing during
the flight (and evidentally was the only reason they managed not
to get shot out of the air).

Yes, I heard that he's losing his certificate after 35 years of flying.
That is a shame, but probably justified in this case. The article
said he got lost, but even so, how hard would it be to know that you
need to fly west, not east when in that area?
