More detail about one of the planes here:
http://www.floridatoday.com/!NEWSROOM/102304bushplane.htm
"Hargrove said he had set out from Brunswick, Ga., this morning, landed for fuel and lunch in Flagler County and headed south again. He said he knew of flight restrictions around Jacksonville, and made a wide circle around the city, but didn't know of anything unusual over Brevard.
Upon overflying Space Coast Stadium, he circled to see what the crowd was about.
He realized something was wrong when the fighter closed in. Hargrove switched to an emergency radio frequency, on which he was ordered to land at Merritt Island."

I was at the event and the plane was not a crop duster - although i would have taken this guy out especially when he turned back north straight at the baseball field. The president didn't even flinch while the jet roared overhead, he kept his head, knew the finest pilots in the world were watching his and our backs. and even the sharpshooters had a bead on this clown in the plane. The plane was deliberately circling and no way didn't see the F-16 minutes earlier as it approached the stadium. How can you miss a fully loaded F-16 in your face, 2 large helicopters with the presidential seal on them, and 3 other huge helicopters below. This guy knew what he was doing and the timing was too coincidental. I say take this guys license and fine him.
