How close is Tyndall to this flight? There’s nothing that can scramble a jet there that’s closer?

I don’t think we know where they were
on the flight path at the point of
‘the escort’ down to Colorado Springs.

I understand we have National Guard planes in the air at all times, fully loaded...Wonder why they're not called in...

There’s a ANG operation at Dannelly Field in Montgomery (F-16s. Used to be anyway. Can’t tell about Obama.)

Why even scramble a jet? What is the fighter going to do but shoot the plane down? The guy was in the bathroom, not the cockpit.

This is more TSA CYA and a huge waste of money.
