In the picture, that Cessna is with the Civil Air Patrol. I assume they used a stock photo?

Flying a Cherokee through a narrow corridor north of Destin, FL, I had two jets escort me for several minutes.

One on each side.

Stock photo, that fighter is an F15 not F16, and the article says the intruding aircraft type is unknown.

With the fine research ability of the modern press, I'm surprised they didn't have this plane:

Nice F-16. They added a motor and made it twice as big as the earlier versions.

Well? Did that maneuver work, or did the intruding plane just ignore the ‘headbutt’?

You do not ignore that.

The next step is to either force you down or shoot you down.............

Nope. Look closer at the emblem on the door. It is a Civil Air Patrol aircraft.

I finished up my USAF career at Maxwell AFB, HQ's for the Civil Air Patrol...
