Default RE: FBI terrorism task force

I find it odd that AMA in Muncie is not "on the radar".
Is Muncie doing a good job of interacting with the feds and reprenting us to the government
if the feds go to some local guy rather than make a call to Muncie (or make a call to FAA).

Was it 2006 or 2007 when DB wrote his sky is falling - dont say nuthin to nobody column in MA?


This terrorism junk is all smoke & hype anyway.
It really dont matter how many lbs of explosives a model plane cn carry,
the question should be
How many people can one of these kill?
And one of the many circumstancial answers is
"2 in Hungary carrying 0lb explosives or weapons"

An unarmed .40Sport plane flown by a terrorist can maime & potentially kill someone when simply flown into a crowd of people. That makes it a swell terrorism weapon, because terrorism isnt about accomplishing tactical damage, it is about making folks afraid there will be tactical damage. All they need to do is have 10 terrorists in 10 states fly a 40sport each into a group of people and claim responsibility, and the media will do the terrorists work for them.

SOme folks think the AMA should take a wait & see approach on dealing with everything.
Lets wait till folks die, and then start trying to keep our planes.
