Blair "Almost" Ordered RAF to Shoot Down a Civilian Airliner
People need to understand that Blair knows nothing about aviation. Of course the errant aircraft wasn't over London. More likely it was headed in our general direction and still far out when decisions were being made. Wasn't there one approaching from Germany with its transponder turned off which made the news?

Should such an incident have occured. Then the aviation 'Enthusiasts' websites / e-mail lists would have been full of it being reported. Wouldnt have been surprised if a recording from a airband scanner would also have been produced.
If the enthusiasts can produce a list of what frequency goes to which TAD number. Then nothing is impossible

Almost? It would be Bliars favourite word wouldn't it? I mean he almost told the truth once, but couldn't dreg up the courage or know-how. The more revelations he makes in excerpts from his Blair Book Of Lies, the more one realises what a complete fraud and a charlatan the man is. The trouble with him is, is that his massive conceit tells him he did nothing wrong...apart from inflicting damage on the UK which may never be repaired. The man is living proof that not everything in life has a purpose.
Avin a laarf
I read this thread, and indeed just lately this whole site with incredulity! You lot crack me up, you really do.
You moan about the recently departed bunch of thieving, lying scumbags (Whoops sorry, fingers slipped I meant to type decent hard working public servants of course). Yet we have just had a general election in which WE voted into power over us ANOTHER bunch of decent.......(OK, you all know I really mean, lying thieving scumbag), politicians.
And thats the real problem. Which ever way one votes, we end up with a different bunch of (Thieving ly.........You get the description I'm sure by now).
So who are the bigger fools? Them for applying for and getting what I regard as a good, well paid job with lots of fringe benefits, or us for carrying on putting them there and moaning?
I just wish I was healthy enough to apply next vacancy!
Bring back Matrons and SWO's!

a lot of fluttering pieces will of course be horrendous, but not as much of an impact, physical or tactical, as a high velocity airliner ?
Great thread. 
It is threads like these that wake you up to the fact that PPRUNE is nothing more than a virtual crewroom, with the usual amount of ill informed twaddle trotted out to kill the boredom (guilty as charged
).
A funny, lively and entertaining crewroom, but a crewroom nonetheless.

It seems, according to the DM, that Bliar was sitting behind the goalposts at St. James's Park (Newcastle) watching Jackie Milburn play footy. That was his claim.
Problem is that ooer Jackie retired when Bliar was FOUR and there were NO seats behind the goalposts. But ooer Tone did score an own goal!
Other examples show him as most of us know him.
The incident of this topic is flattened and thrown away as rubbish.
Therefore, every word Bliar wrote was factual crap!

Urban Myth - the Newcastle story. He did mention Newcastle and Milburn, but not in that context.
As for the London thing... Look no further than the following story that claims it happens almost every month. BBC News - RAF fighter jets scrambled amid terror plot fears
Or try this one if you believe the Newcastle story and want to see what else people make up.

Right, must dash, I'm off for a game of Swingball with Robert De Niro.

RTR,
If I may offer a small grammatical correction to your post - it was 'Wor Jackie': 'Ooer' is a phrase used by namby-pamby, soft, shandy-drinking southerners from points beyond Gatesheed.
I agree with the rest of your post though.
At the time of his alleged flight to a sunny place , I would guess the biggest thing flying out of Woolsington would have been the Ambassadors of BKS -- does that mean Bliar the Visionary can also claim that he thought of ETOPS long before anyone else?
