“...nightly...” and daily too. Obviously we haven’t spent enough on the drug war, or hired enough cops, or created enough agencies to do proper combat. In this day of infrared technology, it’s amazing ultralights can’t be seen swarming in from Mexico. We need Sky Net, killer drones controlled by pimple faced kids, scouring the border for low flying Mexicans.

Manned ultralights and microlights flying Nap of the Earth at 75-100 feet are not going to be visible to a lot of radar. Some of these things are plastic and wood with tiny (leaf-blower or weed wacker) engines. They would have the radar profile of a bird. If the pilot knew the canyons ....

Unmanned aircraft might even be smaller. 2-3 kilos, 6.5-10 lbs. is not much of a load to carry, or to lose. Yeah, this is a real problem.
