es geht darum, dass man plant kleine cessnas und pipers usw (sog. GA aricraft) aus den staedten zu verbannen. neueste panikmache, die die leute dazu bewegen soll das zu unterstuetzen beruht auf dem unfall in new york neulich. wer darauf reinfaellt ist ziemlich doof.

wir flieger sind natuerlich dagegen. und die logik mit der die politiker an das thema rangehen ist absolut an den haaren herbeigezogen. ausserdem:

Number of people killed by a terrorist attack using a GA aircraft? Zero.
Number of people injured by a terrorist attack using a GA aircraft? Zero.
Property damage from a terrorist attack using a GA aircraft? None


wenn man also kleine hustenflieger verbannt, muesste man auch, oder eher davor noch folgendes aus den staedten verbannen:

* Banning all vans within cities. A small panel van was used in the first World Trade Center attack. The bomb, which weighed 1,500 pounds, killed 6 and injured 1,042.
8 Banning all box trucks from cities. Timothy McVeigh's rented Ryder truck carried a 5,000-pound bomb that killed 168 in Oklahoma City.
* Banning all semi-trailer trucks. They can carry bombs weighing more than 50,000 pounds.
* Banning newspapers on subways. That's how the terrorists hid packages of sarin nerve gas in the Tokyo subway system. They killed 12.
* Banning backpacks on all buses and subways. That's how the terrorists got the bombs into the London subway system. They killed 52.
* Banning all cell phones on trains. That's how they detonated the bombs in backpacks placed on commuter trains in Madrid. They killed 191.
* Banning all small pleasure boats on public waterways. That's how terrorists attacked the USS Cole, killing 17.
* Banning all heavy or bulky clothing in all public places. That's how suicide bombers hide their murderous charges. Thousands killed.


support general aviation.
