These “ghost” aircraft are due to radar reflections from the high-rise buildings around the airport,

Yup, lotsa high rises out in the Pacific...NOT.

Now if it was the Atlantic ("Atlantis") maybe I'd believe it.

Cheers!

The obvious reason for quashing is "who benefits"?

Does the current Presidential administration want to panic everyone before Christmas flying season, after the beating all the airlines have taken, and JUST as the economy is settling down?

Do the Dems WANT to remind everyone of the presence of live terrorists right around the time John Kerry is channeling himself in a fashion reminiscent of Jenjis Khan and Howard "YEAARRRRGH!" Dean is calling for surrender in Iraq?

Politicians are not just guided by self interest--but by the interests of their biggest lobbyists and constituents.

Cheers!

You missed the part about meteorological conditions. Also, high rise buildings between the target and the receiver are what effect the system. Been to LA lately?
