These incidents are starting to become expensive. They need to start severly limiting hobbyist from flying anywhere near DC.

>>How do you accidentally fly in that area on a clear sunny day.
Look, honey--there's the White House. I'll fly over there and give you a better view.

The sad thing is, I know you are making a joke, but I almost see that as more likely than an Al Quaeda threat...

I was at GWB rally at local stadium and in the middle of his speech, we suddenly heard the unmistakable sound of afterburners. Small plane like a cessna was overhead and then made a turn toward the stadium with F-16 making huge turns around area. Just seemed like the wrong tool to use for the situation. Now a Warthog would truly have its way with a small plane.

There is absolutely no excuse for this and I for one resent the cost to taxpayers for his stupidity or planned test of our reactions.Of course there's no excuse, and we all resent costs and scares... So ban human beings. Until we ban human beings from the planet there will continue to be human mistakes.

This has happened over Crawford, too. Some people in hobby craft think they're too high to obey rules. Altitude sickness.

My wife's uncle is a pilot and was flying back to Louisiana from Mexico and got over into some restricted airspace. When the F-16's showed up verbally ripping him a new one, he told me that the utter fear was enough for him to obey every syllable of the orders he received from the fighters.
If someone actually had to be fired upon, that is amazing.

There's probably some recent intelligence causing this high level of response.
