It would not take long for the fighter's to get there from PDX and to a
fighter a C-150 would be like a target that is standing still.

when a flock or fighters takes off using runway 10R? Talk about going def

lol can you imagine the public backlash if an f15 blasted someone's c150
out
of the sky.


Yes. I can imagine the newsgroups full of posts complaining about that
idiot
pilot and the harm he did to general aviation. I can see the
administration
feeding the press the story that this was a huge threat and pumping up
what
terrorist damage a small airplane can do, and that there was no time to
consider alternatives (like the cops who shoot somebody who brandishes a
toy
gun). I can see this as JUSTIFYING huge TFRs around events, with multple
rings
and multple escalations of force for intrusions.

I hope it doesn't come to that, and there is a good chance that it
wouldn't.
However, I would not bet on it.
