Does anyone know if there were any sudden changes in the take off & landings in the NYC area that morning?
Watching the raw video from the AP, I am reminded of the day I was traveling up I-85 when President Bush was going to make an appearance in Charlotte. As luck would have it, we would hit Charlotte the same time AF-1 landed.
We started seeing fighter jets near Greenville SC. They came in & out of our visual range while we were driving north. By the time we hit the NC/SC state line, we always saw at least one in the air. It was as if they were establishing a perimeter and making sure the inside stayed closed to air traffic. We also noticed that we did not see any passenger jets in the air, unusual because of the airports we passed going north.
It worried us because we didn’t know about Bush’s visit until we picked up a Charlotte radio station. AF-1 crossed 85 right over us. [I swear I saw President Bush return my wave, LOL!]
Granted, odumba was not on the plane the other day. Still, I would think extra precautions regarding air space would be taken because if the plane was one that is used as AF-1, it has the defensive technology even if Odumba was not on it.
