re: #381 avanti

“Air Force officials say this was a photo mission for their crew. They were shooting from the Statue of Liberty to south of the Holland tunnel, as well as from the Newark Bay to north of the Staten Island Expressway.

Officials say the shoot was part of a normal training mission. They added that they do the missions quite often.

President Barack Obama, who apparently was not informed about the fly-by, was “furious,” CBS News reported.”

My opinion, no matter who asked for the mission, the White House guy that approved it, should be canned. What sense did it make to notify NYC officials and then ask them to keep it quite ?

That “mission accomplished” can be done using drones, not gazillion dollar Presidential/Vice Presidential & Pelosi planes.

We’re in a recession/depression. De fund the stupid “program” Google satellite can already do.
