thankfully said Mooney driver and pax did not become 30mm fodder!It's going to happen sooner or later. The feds will shoot down an airliner full of innocents, or a Cessna with a family returning home.
The Nazi's here on FR will probably cheer.
(I learned to fly out in Phoenix, where they still have lots of uncontrolled airspace ;-)
RE #13 YES what do they think the fighters are patroling the sky for? Sure they will shoot down any aircraft including commercial airliners if they are taken over by enemy agents bent on destroying the White House or what ever. Then we will have a real problem on our hands.
