And again, your personal entertainment at being able to fly around potential terrorist targets of national importance is not some huge assault on liberty and not too much to give up for protecting those icons. Buy a ticket if you want to see it. If you want to fly, do it elsewhere. Not a huge burden on liberty despite your wish to zoom the Statue.So every commercial airliner doing the "Potomac River Approach" to Dulles is to be perceived as a terrorist threat to the Pentagon?

I believe that is true. Passengers are not allowed to stand during the last 30 minutes of a flight into Dulles and for a while, there was an air marshall on every flight into Washington. I am not sure if those restrictions have been lifted. If so, they shouldn't have been in my opinion.
