Heard on Fox that aircraft was taken "without permission".

Which is apparently newspeak for the actual "We didn't have this flight
listed on our books" from the club owners. Although apparently
everyone in the club knew these guys were flying to an airshow down
South.

Did you see a news report that actually stated that the plane was taken
without permission? The NYT merely reported--accurately--that Terry Gainer,
the Capitol police chief, *claimed* that "preliminary information indicated
that the men had taken the plane without permission".

Sure wish there was an easy way to sue newspeople for outright
fabrications.

I sometimes have the same wish regarding newsgroup contributors.
