President Barack Obama was at Camp David at the time. He had traveled there by motorcade after switching from his Marine One helicopter because of bad weather.

It's been an eventful weekend with planes for Obummer. Although I still do not believe that "bad weather" story. Presidents have traveled to Camp David via the chopper for years, all seasons. Never remember hearing any time there was an emergency landing at a nearby airpot and transfer to a motorcade. Something just does not sound right.

That being said, now this plane. I can't imagine anyone being dumb enough to fly in the restricted airspace on purpose. But, maybe the natives are getting restless and not thinking about how quickly they will be met by a huge AF jet alongside. That's sure gotta make a pilot panic real quick!

Not unusual, at least in the past. I'm from the area, and if Camp David is socked in with fog it used to be routine to re-route.
