To: Right Wing Assault

That was said in the article. Do you think it was wrong? It seemed awfully low. I wondered if they meant 150 yards.

If one Googles “Air Force One” “150 feet” — Google returns 21,800 references:

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&as_q=%22Air+Force+One%22+150+feet&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&num=10&lr=&as_filetype=&ft=i&as_sitesearch=&as_qdr=all&as_rights=&as_occt=any&cr=&as_nlo=&as_nhi=&safe=images

Other estimates are “less than 500 feet.”

Whatever it was, for a 747, it was flying too low.

Probably means an altitude of 150 feet above the tallest obstruction.

In NYC, the difference between 150 feet and 450 feet is not very significant. From the video I saw, that info is incorrect.
