responsible journalism
An East Anglian Newspaper is campaigning for greater restrictions on flying after hiring an aircraft and flying within the exclusion zone at Sizewell power station. In a front page article they claimed that they had smuggled a bag of sugar on board and flew within 750 ft of the reactor. They aregued that they could easilly have blown the building up had they been a terrorist.
Should we be concerned about the potential danger of a cessna 150 (or similar) causing nuclear destruction with a small bag of explosives or that a flying school or hire operation was prepared to contravene the ANO by ignoring a restricted area? at the same time contributing to further anti GA press coverage.
