The story also talks about a group called the American Border Patrol which
is flying something called a "[link=http://www.americanpatrol.com/04-FEATURES/040504-ABP-BORDERHAWK-KGUN/040504_Feature.html]Border Hawk[/link]"

There is nothing on the [link=http://www.americanborderpatrol.com/]American Border Patrol's[/link] web site that goes into detail on what the Border Hawk is... Or if they got the FAA's okee-dokee...

Yea, I caught part of that on the news last night. And having spent 6 years near the border South of San Diego, I dare say they will find plenty for those things to do.

My Niece's husband was one of the people that installed the camera system on that aircraft. He works for Platis in Denver, and frequents this board.

A mighty large bird if I do say so myself....I wonder if the pilot(s) have AMA
