This is clearly NOT an FAA decision, rather the Interagency Airspace
Working Group. In other words, the Secret Squirrels, Capitol Police (responsible for the last "Godzilla Alert" - run and scream from that terrifying Cessna 150), and DoD. DoD already got the approval for direct shoot-down authority without having to coordinate with DHS last month. FAA is not in control of this thing, they are just following orders. |

The actual proposal contains quite a few instances of language that indicates that the FAA doesn't really want to do this. For example, they point out that the current ADIZ is costing various airports millions of dollars a year and that this proposal will dramatically increase that, in addition to costing the FAA over 11 million a year. On the other hand, what's 11 or 12 million dollars to an agency 4 billion in the hole.

The FAA proposal to change the DC ADIZ into Restricted airspace with a ceiling of 18,000' is likely an effort to further de-clutter it. Crap. Oh, no thank you. C'mon. Do you really believe that this is being considered to reduce clutter? http://www.aopa.org/ Join if you already haven't. While I've been an AOPA member for decades, I completely fail to understand how that relates to your outburst. Membership dues pay for the fight against this sort of crap. Glad you're on board! moo |

Not to sound obtuse, but when has the AOPA ever won one of these battles
with the FAA? And I don't mean the local battles, but a biggie like this one? Terry "Happy Dog" wrote in message . ..

Isn't the (((Secret Service))) in on this also?

Why do you think [the DC ADIZ] was implemented?
To "do something". Jose -- Quantum Mechanics is like this: God =does= play dice with the universe, except there's no God, and there's no dice. And maybe there's no universe. for Email, make the obvious change in the address. |
