Default Air Force 1 is hijacked in the US

OK, maybe not for real, but they didnt know that, lol.

An amateur cameraman has captured the moment a presidential jet and a fighter plane flew low over New York, sparking panic among office workers.
The half-hour flight triggered the evacuation of a number of office buildings in the city - Mayor Michael Bloomberg said he was "furious" he had not been warned.
The White House has apologised for the incident.
The president was not on board the flight, which was organised to take photographs of the presidential jet against the New York skyline

So next time will they just think it's a publicity stunt and stay inside the buildings? We probably all know the story of the boy who cried wolf.

You can imagine them sitting round a table discussing it, and not one person chipping in and saying, "should we inform anyone?"

Fecking unbelievably stupid...........

And these people are in charge of something

But wouldn't they have had to file a flight plan or something in which case it would have been picked up by someone with a brain??

Should not have taken all that much thought beforehand. What a pile of plonkers!
