Do you feel secure with the no fly zones established by Homeland security?

Question

I don't, because shortly after 9/11 a famous t.v. news anchor fly thru a no fly zone (San Onofry nucular power plant) A crop duster could wiggle and hug the ground. Virtually impossible to shoot down.

Answer 1

if crop dusters are so hard to shoot down why do we spend 30 billion on military aircraft when we can just use a crop duster

Answer 2

No...because a lot of novice pilots end up in there and could end up killed. I really think the crop duster scare is overrated
I live in Florida and an old man from our western farming district in "Belle Glade" claimed he was offered money by one of them to buy his crop duster. Also They trained right here at Lantana airport and I know a guy who has a hangar and plane there and knew the instructor's who told him they couldn't figure out how they did it because they were the worst pilots he every trained and could barely handle a Cessna. I also knew some pilots of a small aircraft that accidentally flew into NASA air space..not hard to do by accident and they were ordered down immediately or ELSE!!
And that happened in the late nineties way before 9-11.

Answer 3

I do. I think Operation Noble Eagle, which involves (in part) the air defense of the homeland, is the least reported operation in this war. Since the attack on America, the skies over this country are constantly patrolled or are guarded by aircraft on rapid response alert. If this guy was a TV anchor, he was trying to make himself part of the story. Not surprising, considering that TV anchors belong to the same trade union as Jay Leno, David Letterman and Jimmy Kimmel (American Federation of Television and Radio Artists).
As for that plane, it gives off a heat signature. That means it can be targetted by any one of a range of air-to-air missiles. And those missiles, because of their tracking and guidance charateristics, are the original example of "you can run, but you can't hide".

Answer 4

Homeland Security doesn't make me feel secure in any way, shape or form. When Blackwater gets immunity and is protecting our diplomats, that tells me that we are not safe anywhere and that loyalties can't even be questioned. I will feel safe when all the cronies are out of office and the laws are enforced and the money is cut off from sanctuary cities and they are surrounded by the National Guard. Until then, we have 20 to 40 million criminals running free in the country doing as they damned well please and none of us is safe as long as they have the government's (state, local and federal) protection.

Answer 5

your kidding right.......obviously you are not a student of aviation. Yes this is a possibility but the same people who establish that type of scenario say terrorist cells are going to use the Mexican border to attack the USA.

Answer 6

i do...............
