Exactly what purpose are radar and our other detection devices serving? Perhaps we should just have the media patrol the skies... |
According to CBS news, the aircraft was not required to be in contact with air traffic control because it was flying under VFR (visual flight rules).
I don't see how this has anything to do with whoever is in charge of North American defense, but it seems that the FAA needs to change some policies on flights of small aircraft.
