OK folks, where are several million Americans congregated on weekends in the fall? Football stadiums, right?
A dozen or more private jets flying into the crowd at the worst angle, would probably exceed the 9/11 casualty rate.
I have always thought this was the next attack scenario.
Look, we all no the threat is minor. So, it will be played up will we keep a open border and do other silly things.
know
“”al-Qaida threats to small airplanes””
Strange way to put it. I’ll bet all small airplanes are really scared!
I’m also sure they’re still not checking flight schools.
You need to understand,, most general aviation really is about pleasure. You are being selfish to let your personal pleasure stand in the way of the revolution.
The State will soon arrange activities for you entertainment, and you should attend by public transportation. Also, there are plenty of good movies you can watch about airplanes to satisfy your interest in small planes. /
(of course, i would ask you to remember that Sarah lives where GA machines are used like cars, vote accordingly!)
The other day they had a story of the Alphabet Soup Gen Av organizations all on the stage @ OSH talking about working in concert against this sort of big Gov't isssues that effect them.
IMHO I am afraid it maybe to late...
I already know you know that know is spelled k-n-o-w and not n-o. Good to know I knew isn’t it?
Thanks for the know!
Because of this?

You should check this out and then tell me if even slightly sophisticated terrorists could find a way to arm “small planes” with all kinds of explosives and biological / chemical agents.
Terrorists could fill a small car with a dirty bomb. All those should be continuously tracked so that children can be safe.
Yes as an airplane owner I'm anything but rich...just trying to enjoy my first love...and these accusations really hurt our industry...
Terrorist prefer suitcase bombs, suicide bombers, car bombs and truck bombs for a reason.
Look for this to be the reason they use to try to include GA in their perversions . . . errr . . . I mean Inspections.
In order of likelihood, there's the clamp down on our freedoms you mentioned. But that doesn't make sense unless you're a one world globalist and have a crazy notion that teapartiers, constitutionalists and freedom loving people are terrorists. Also under the same category, the airlines may fear the flying public will turn more and more to GA unless GA is strongly regulated. There may be a lobbing/crackdown campaign to prevent this.
A second less likely reason is that muslim terrorists are feeding our government disinformation to distract from their real attack plans.
Finally, God forbid, muslim terrorists have a nuke.

All these alerts are nothing but propaganda for more tax money.
