Make light of it all you want, but it's these moron pilots who are going to
put an end to YOUR pastime.
[...]
AOPA or the like should help make examples of these pilots...


Standard tactic of dictatorial control - get the subjects to do the
dirty work. Instead of standing up against idiot rules (like the
zillion cubic mile zone where only proven building-buster airplanes can
fly, we are ready to execute our own kind for not slavishly obeying
these rules.

Not that I'm advocating violation of the law, but remember how it worked
in grade school - if =anybody= chews gum, =everybody= has to scrub the
floors. The result is that the =kids= themselves beat up anybody who
chews gum.

Is this the kind of world we support?

Well stated sir. All of this because the blowhards is Washington have abrogated
their responsibilities and now the peons must pay.

JohnH,

I fully agree. Pilots are not important, the majority of voters is. And
they LIKE it if the government generates a feeling of pseudo-safety by
these shows of force.

Now if I am interpreting the news correctly......

No transponder and "zig-zagging"

Which is apparently newspeak for the actual "We didn't have this flight
listed on our books" from the club owners. Although apparently
everyone in the club knew these guys were flying to an airshow down
South.

Sure wish there was an easy way to sue newspeople for outright
fabrications.

Did you see a news report that actually stated that the plane was taken
without permission? The NYT merely reported--accurately--that Terry Gainer,
the Capitol police chief, *claimed* that "preliminary information indicated
that the men had taken the plane without permission".

Sure wish there was an easy way to sue newspeople for outright
fabrications.


I sometimes have the same wish regarding newsgroup contributors.

Everyone wants the scoop I guess and jumps at any news at all.
