Well, it was checked baggage. I mean, the owner couldn’t have taken it on as a carry-on ... though I’ve seen people try to bring carry-ons about the same size ... or so it seems.

An air to air?

If it was a surface to air I would be a tad bit more concerned but still..

The flight path from DC to Maralago passed within range of that missile at that airport.

Of course the missile was unarmed. It’s a French missile.

No. The duct tape will make it impossible to release. Unless you're just looking for JATO with a boom finish.

I think it is beginning to get coverage.

Older missile design, but still quite capable with a range of 40km and top speed of Mach 5.

This is pretty strange.

The last time I flew those fascists rejected the dead racoon in my bag. I told them it was carrion.

The potential of that is chilling. ANTIFA firing it at Air Force One comes to mind.
