A jumbo jet chased by F-16 fighter jets buzzed Lower Manhattan this morning, terrorizing New Yorkers, many of whom were forced to evacuate their office buildings.
It was not a terrorist attack, however, but a photo opportunity for Air Force One, sources told the Post.
President Obama was in Washington at the time, but the low-flying 747 circling the Statue of Liberty was one of the planes used as Air Force One, sources said.
City officials were notified of the planned flight, but did not share that information with New Yorkers, many of whom said they were terrified.
No more War on Terror under Team Obama. Instead, Team Obama does the work Al Qaeda wouldn't do, or was prevented from doing, for the past six years.
Dominick Cadlioti, who works at the Mercantile Exchange, thought the worst as he saw the jets hurtle toward his window just after 10:30 a.m. After learning it was all a photo op, he was furious.
"It's so stupid because they tell you about every fire drill, but they didn't tell us about this," he said.
The planes flew over the Verrazano Bridge, buzzed the left ear Lady Liberty and then continued up the Hudson past Jersey City and then circling back toward Staten Island, federal sources told the Post.
Thousands flooded the streets downtown as buildings called evacuations.

Way to waste gas!
I'll bet she was pissed.
And they acused McCain of being a loose cannon !!??!
It’s okay. Obama is cool. He can get away with terrorizing New Yorker and the rest of America.
When I heard it was “just a photo op”, my next thought was, “Is O’s buddy Michael Moore making another movie??
Looks like Obambi is trying to use up the National Reserve flying his new bling (AF-1) around.
Photo-op... Why do I get the feeling there will be some remarkably similar footage showing up in some future Spike Lee movie?...
We really need to have the adults back in charge...
Why not, he’s terrorizing the rest of the country.
Should have used Photoshop.....
Obama is a fool to think this is acceptable.
Maybe he was ordering a dry run for a 9-11 re-enactment
