Hmmm. So multi-million pound jet fighters and helicopters with snipers in them patrolling over Londoners' heads during the Olympics are meant to reassure the public?
It's certainly a nice
PR stunt but would they be that successful in the event of worst case scenarios?
All that film does is create the impression the RAF are using hugely expensive frontline aircraft to ensure a few bumbling hobbyists don't inadvertently overfly the Olympics. Little faith in the CAA education campaign then. And what about the rules of engagement for anyone who did get lost and stray into the restricted zone?
One final thought, anyone know if a GA aircraft has ever been used in a "terrorist" act anywhere in the world? Only one I can think of was the Tamil Tigers - some would argue freedom fighters - using GA to drop bombs on government troops in Sri Lanka. Clearly the thought of a 9/11 style incident doesn't bear thinking about but surely GA aircraft are highly unlikely to be used in such a fashion?
