was in the air as well when this thing happenned. the only nice CAVOK day in the area since 3 weeks.
What happenned in FRA is only going to give more arguments to those who wants to get rid of GA.
Tonight in German TV ZDF the German Minister of Internal affairs said , in response to the 1000 $ question of the journo : " what is the governement going to do to prevent this from happening again ? anwered : " there is no 100% security but we are going to look into the possibility to prevent people carrying guns into small planes, by for instance asking all the small airfields to equip with metal detector doors ! Another well informed minister !
God save us from politicians making fools of themselves on TV.
Yes, if you have a gun, it is easy to steal a GA aircrfat. So it is to steal a fully gazoline ladden truck ( for instance from a motorway rest area )
Gess what kind of dammage that can do ! If that happens will the same Minister ask on TV that all motorway rest areas be equipped with metal detector gates ?
Incidentally I wonder how long the owner of the Dimona will wait now to get his aircraft back.
