A single-engine airplane violated restricted airspace around the nation's capital Wednesday and got to within six miles of the U.S. Capitol building before being diverted, the Federal Aviation Administration said.
The airspace violation prompted security officials to temporarily raise the threat level from yellow to orange and order personnel in the Capitol building to prepare to evacuate, but the incident was resolved before an evacuation was ordered. A propeller-driven Cessna 177, which had taken off from Carroll County airport in north-central Maryland, entered restricted airspace 30 miles north of Washington at 12:12 p.m. EDT at 1,800 feet with no radio, FAA spokesman Hank Price said. The intruding aircraft reached a point six miles northwest of the Capitol building before being diverted and escorted by interceptor aircraft to Leesburg, Va., airport where it landed at 12:44 p.m., Price added.
Can we please get rid of the ADIZ? Please?
I know how to figure out who to vote for in the general election. I'm going to write a letter to each of the candidates. Whoever says they'll get rid of the ADIZ will get my vote. Whoever says it is a vital national security tool will not.
Something says I'll be voting for Ralph Nader or a Green Party candidate if I do that.
