This went on last weekend as well
Is this something new because this was reported several days ago?
Hopefully they get a non-dischargeable bill for the cost to scramble the fighters. That would put an end to this real fast. Those that can afford to pay it would then need to be investigated because they did it on purpose.
This does not make a lot of sense.
sure someone flying a Cessna or something could cause a little damage, but I doubt it would be major even if you were loaded up with some kind of accelerant
but I can think of many more logical vectors.
does anyone remember the dude who flew over
Area-51 live on art bell ?

This is the first I’ve heard about it.
(does anyone remember the dude who flew over

Yep! Remember it well.
Yep, I remember listening to that. It was great. Thanks for posting...I’ll listen again.
I’m glad the President is being kept safe.
This used to happen to W Bush when he was at his ranch near Waco Texas all the time. We would hear the jets rushing to escort someone down who had strayed into the airspace above his ranch.
...Since January 20, the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) has responded to 20 “tracks of interest” entering the Palm Beach area during flight restrictions...
That was perhaps the most classic call on Coast to Coast AM with Art Bell.
I suppose the plan is to make it a common thing so the jets will cease interception.
It happens every time Trump is at MaraLago. Pilots flying from private and uncontrolled airfields aren’t checking for restricted areas.
I got all my pilot training in Florida in the 70’s. Roughly, 80% of all the air traffic in Florida happens to be student pilots just drilling holes in the air to build time. Many have very few clues. Thus is a non-story.
Probably scared the hell out of some supercub pilots.

You know what would put an end to it even faster? Just shoot them down after one warning. When you see that kind of FAFO rule in place you would be see airplanes avoid that area like the plague!
What the hell is are “general aviation planes”?
Wanna stop this crap? Shoot them down. Televise pilot footage of the rocket blowing up the Cessna. This will get peoples’ attention.
The fact that on its face it is illogical means it is the terrorist approach of choice because it is so cheap and easy to plan and deploy.
