President Barack Obama has accepted the resignation of an official who authorized the presidential aircraft flyover in lower Manhattan last month, CBS 2 has learned.

Louis Caldera, the director of the White House Military Office, handed in his resignation Friday. The news comes as Defense Secretary Robert Gates says the Air Force flyover that sparked a panic was not adequately reviewed and approved by senior service and department officials.

The flyover was arranged as part of a photo opportunity for White House records. The official photo was released along with Caldera's resignation and the official report on the flyover.

What is the significance? I’m not up on the news in the past few days, been too busy but I did get a few letters out. Just didn’t watch news.

This is bull.

It wasn;t even a clear day—one that you have for taking pictures to get the right lighting and no haze(like 9/11/01 was—a beautiful, clear,crisp day—while it lasted).

This was the “souvenir” picture for those on board, in my opinion.

I have already called my reps in DC—I want the manifest of those aboard the flight I paid for.

If you haven’t yet, do it today.
