So how did they get into it? It'll be interesting to see what the
details are, when they come out.

You won't find them here. So far, we have reports that their radio was out,
another report that they spoke to the fighters on 121.5. We have a report that
they were squawking 1200, and other reports that they got and were squawking an
appropriate ADIZ code. Even if someone who knows the facts posts them, they'll
be lost in the garbage and contrary opinions.

The media is going to be just as bad. My personal opinion is that AOPA will be
the best source of information, but they'll probably want to keep as quiet as
they can and let this die down.
