No offense intended, Henry. Just an attempt at a little humor.


what humor?

Can a 172 flying at 200 feet above water across Lake Superior get through
undetected by radar or AWACS? Are there holes in radar coverage?


There are, indeed, holes. If the 172 was at 25 ft, it would be more reasonable. Smugglers
do it all the time.


or using a composite plane would maybe also help ...
