A photo shoot involving a 747 used as Air Force One and two fighter jets flying at low altitude led to hundreds of frightened calls from residents and workers in Lower Manhattan this morning, triggering memories of 9-11 as many evacuated their offices...
According to officials, the flight -- authorized by the FAA -- came in as low as 1000 feet to 150 feet above the city as it made a large circle over Manhattan, Staten Island, and New Jersey...
Other officials noted that they were led to believe the flight would be limited to the area near the Statue of Liberty, however the flight pattern was above a much larger portion of New York and at an extremely low altitude.

Not confusing to me...
Sorry it causes you so much grief.
No grief, also no accuracy, no precision, very MSM-like.
What’s your beef?
I have tried to help you. Were you baiting or were you sincerely interested in the discussion?
I have been giving you the benefit of the doubt, but you really don’t seem interested in the facts.
I/WE KNOW NOTHING!
Axe not what what the country can do to FauxRock, AXE what FauxRock can do to the country.
It’s like the sabre-rattling the Russians do every May Day, except that Obama is rattling his own citizens.
He alone is accountable for terrifying all of Manhattan. I haven’t heard him apologize yet.
I am AX, and have been on this forum since 12 Feb 1998. I do not want to be even remotely connected with Axelrod. I was talking politics with my cousin’s husband, a guy much bigger than me. He is from Chicago and has a summer home somewhere in SW MI. He was in a hardware store during the campaign and standing in line behind him was the aforementioned Obamatron, Axlerod. I though my wife’s cousin was going to swoon when he told me about the chance encounter. My cousin, too, is an Obamanoid. To make matters worse, they’re all Catholic. They don’t want to hear about the Obamans views on abortion. ((LaLaLa, fingers in ears.))
The facts are:
You got one hell of a scoop if in fact that aircraft WAS AF One.
Everyone already knows that it was one of the USAF's aircraft used to transport the Prez.
The second fact does not make it AF One.
Whats your beef?
Mis-identification of the aircraft in question. For someone who seems to know the difference you have demonstrated a lazy approach to the facts, just like the reporter who wrote the headline for this story.
Thanks for confirming my suspicions!
Cheers!
Is there some more info on Caldera?
