Talk about over-reaction!
...AND NOW A WORD FROM THE FAR SIDE
Paul Hudson, executive director of the Aviation Consumer Action Project
(ACAP), told the committee that GA's "one million private planes" should
be banned from a radius of 100 miles surrounding all major cities and
"likely terrorist targets." We kind of got stuck right there, given
that Hudson is off by a factor of five on the size of the GA fleet, and
we can't figure out what would qualify -- or not -- as a "likely
terrorist target."
