This is what may be the case, (provided they fly to New York):
(The Ghana pilot makes the statement,
The U.S. gets wind of it,
U.S. tells Ghana Airways, 'if that guy is flying past 60W and your plane is 1 mile off course, it will be shot down'
Ghana tells pilot to stay home.)
Thats my simple theory.
Personally I can trust many countries, mostly European.(better than most US ones
) I do feel uneasy about others from places where there may be a lack of resources to prevent another action. Small freighter types fit in this category.
