How did 4 REALLY BIG airplanes get off track that much without all
kinds of bells and whistles going off??

They were hijacked, with the hijackers killing the crews and then flying
them into buildings.

Remember, it's FAA AIR TRAFFIC Control. Control is a key word.


"Air Traffic Control" does not exist! It should be more properly termed
"Air Traffic Coordination," as that is its true function.



Fast forward to last month

How did a 172 with a student pilot "wander" into the ADIZ around the
most protected air space on earth recently in DC??
Why did nobody answer the pilot on two different frequencies when he
called? If the black hawk sent the frequency to
the pilot, who where they talking to in the FAA responsible for
communication coordination?

Did they pick an OTS RCO?? Hell, RCO's around America are out of service
all the time in the NOTAM database.

Those guys didn't read the NOTAMs, which are sometimes incomprehensible,
any how.


If the pilot was not squawking, he should have been tagged way the hell
out before DC airspace. He got
within 3 miles of the WHITE HOUSE!!!!!


They got rattled and turned the wrong way when the Blackhawks and F-16s
showed up.


Now, IF? this "lost" aircraft was really two rag heads in a 172 laden
with Anthrax or a Dirty bomb....

A- Do you blow it out of the sky with thousands of DC employees looking
up while running OUTSIDE?
B- Does it continue, pull a little wire and release anthrax or smallpox
into the sky over the heads of thousands
of people OUTSIDE??

IAW, whoever ordered all the buildings evacuated was an idiot.
The risk was much greater OUTSIDE

True -- our security appears to be in the hands of Chicken Little and
Fearless Fosdick.


They knew it was a 172 coming in, if the thing hit the White House it
would leave a smudge.
The damn building is MARBLE SLABS. So is most of the DC buildings. If it
was carrying a NUKE
it would not matter. The entire downtown area of DC would be TOAST

So, the FAA screwed up.

No, FAA didn't screw up there -- everybody else did, howerver, except
the interceptors.

Homeland Security screwed up and the DC Federal
people
screwed up by ordering everyone (their valued employees) OUTSIDE

(More crap snipped)

The FAA and the United States airspace system is a complex "chain" that
has many LINKS that can be broken contributing to a
SNAP and loss of CONTROL at anytime.

There NEVER WAS any control!


(More racist crap snipped)

There is no excuse for the chaos in DC last month. NONE
America got lucky this time


We got lucky because calm heads prevailed.
