Acording to the news reports, he cancelled IFR and/or squawked VFR before
this happened. If it was for weather, it would seem kind of odd for him to
do that. Usually an aircraft with weather issues is left in the IFR system.
However, I suppose an unavoidable separation conflict could have required an
IFR cancellation to avoid a violation of the separation kind. Anyone out
there ever experience a similar situation (non-ADIZ, T-storm, traffic
problem)?

We as pilots would have to support it. Less incursions is safer for
us
(the aviation community)
Why do I find it hard to believe that a King Air 300 "accidentally"
penetrated the ADIZ? I just flew in that ADIZ a couple of weeks ago,
and
it's hard to imagine "accidentally" entering this incredibly well-marked,
highly defended piece of territory.
Personally, I'll bet when all the evidence is examined we will find that
the
pilot diverted for weather (as stated), that the local controller knew
this,
and that somehow that information didn't get passed around to the
appropriate controllers.
