The Citation was involved in the intercept although the Blackhawk
was the
one flying formation - at least until the F-16s showed up. That

reported from the beginning.

Saying that the F16s were "flying formation" with the C150 is a bit
of a
stretch of the term... You might as well say that buzzards circling
overhead
as you're dying in the desert are "flying formation" with ya'...

He didn't say that. He said that the Blackhawk was flying formation
unil the F-16s got there. According to various reports, that's when
the Blackhawk broke off.

While working in a restricted area on a missile range in the 80s, I
once requested that some F-15s to intercept a hot air balloon that had
strayed over a hot range. Now that was a funny intercept!
