It is all well and good for all to wail about loss of freedoms and decry restrictions on small private aircraft, but that is self-serving hogwash.

Move to Europe and let those brave enough to live free remain free. We are a special class of citizen, we're US citizens. Notice all or your hazardous light aircraft incidents were harmless. btw, If your going to ban airplanes, guns are next.

#1 - This not about freedom, it is about legal responsiblity; one of FR's posters on this thread stated that that inpector was required by current laws and regulation to:

A - File a flight plan
B - Monitor his radio
C - Be aware of alerts

#2 - Auto licenses are a privilege, not a Constitutional right

#3 - Aircraft licenses are a privilege, not a Constitutional right

#4 - Gun ownership is a Constitutional right, guaranteed by the 2nd Ammendment, responsibility of their use is required by law.

#5 - Private aircraft ownership is not a Constitutional right, or guaranteed by and law, and responsibility of their use is required by law.

#6 - An individual firearm is unlikely to kill the President or another 3000 Americans.

#7 - A private plane was crashed into the Clinton White House; that tree on the back of your dollar bills is no longer there any more.

#8 - The fourth (4th) skyjacked 911 jetliner (in one day) that passengers attempted to retake and that crashed into a Pennsylvania field was targeted either for the White House to hit Vice President Dick Cheney and First Lady Laura Bush or for the Capitol building to destroy the members of the US Congress.

#9 - Since three (3) out of three (3) jetliners that hit their targets killed many Americans, as was their intent and purpose, it is likely that that fourth (4th) jetliner would have killed many in Washington DC.

#10 - Europe has nothing to do with this issue; this pipeline inspector was clearly in violation of federal law, knowing or unknowingly.

According to one previous FR poster on this thread that obviously knows more about FAA rules and regulations the you or me, there are existing regulations on the books that he was violating.

If he was not aware of those regulations he should have his ticket revoked. If he was he should not only have it revoked, but receive a large fine.

This is not the first incidence of small aircraft abuse as I pointed out in my post.

You seem to want to "cherry pick" and "pick and choose" the laws you wish to ignore and wish to obey, much as Democrats do.

You also resort to obfuscation by attempting to mix in Constitutional law and rights, even so far as to imply that there is a constitutional Ammendment that gives "Freedom of the Sky".

We all know that is not true.

It is also another old lib trick to "change the subject", as you say "Move to Europe".

Bring up "guns" (firearms in the Army) is another false lead, there is a Constitutional right to own and bear arms, as everyone knows, but many dispute applies to individuals; I do not, and I have used them against criminals more than once. They did not prevail.

#1 - I note you included the Tampa Islamic teen that crashed into a Bank as "harmless". It was only a lucky accident that nobody was in that area of that building at thay exact moment.

#2 - The two Florida jerks that buzzed the New Jersey beaches to terrorize the bathers was not "harmless". They attempted to evade pursuit by law inforcement, proving their unlawful intent, and were disciplined in some way by the FAA in Florida. Look it up.

#3 - The pilots that intruded on DC airspace should be treated accordingly:

A - Accidental intrusion: Warning, Notation of Reprimand on License and FFA records

B - Willful intrusion: Lifetime Revocation of license, heavy fine, and prison time

MY FINAL PARTING GIFT:

Illegally "low level" buzz me or my horses and cattle and you will instantly find more then you want to know about firearms and their lawful, Constututional useage.

You will be grounded.

Permanently.

Legally.
