Predator crashed
"Richard Riley" wrote in message oups.com... Global Hawk - and only Global Hawk - has a blanket authorization to fly in the national airspace. They figure they're launching in a restricted area and climbing to 60,000 feet, and there's not much civilian traffic up there News to me, but OK. The predator hat crashed was operating in the low teens, when it went haywire, and went down, right through an area that was not notamed, as far as I know. Fortunately, the "big sky" theory worked, and nobody else got mid-air'ed. -- Jim in NC |

Not a blanket clearance, but there are 100% more of them this year than last year... |
