You've just got to wonder how long it will be until the Feds actually lock
up one of these idiots. I mean, c'mon -- I live in Iowa, some 800 miles
away, and even I am familiar with the existence of an ADIZ around D.C. What
the hell is wrong with these guys?


They're probably from Iowa. Not all pilots are as well versed as most of us
who hang out here are. The Flight Circus Stations (with the possible exception
of Leesburg) are woefully stupid about the ADIZ as well. It took a while for
even Altoona (which is about 100 miles north of DC and frequently takes the
spill over calls for Leesburg) to understand what the ADIZ was.

Their amateurish behavior is making all pilots look like fools. Sooner or
later the national security apparatus is going to take action -- and I can
almost guarantee it will be an action that none of us wants to see...


Actually, it's working more or less as planned. The ADIZ/FRZ can't keep anybody
out. The idea was to limit the traffic there to amounts that were manageable to
intercept.
