[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So now it has come out that ATC lost contact with the plane "moments" after takeoff. Bizarre that fighter jets weren't sent to investigate sooner. It was allowed to fly up the East Coast and back! [/quote] This is what I want to know… if it was flying over DC even near the no-fly zone, why weren’t the jets on it then?[/quote] People keep claiming "Oh, you guys think the Air Force is like the avengers." No. I want to know why an unresponsive plane was allowed to fly from Tennessee to Long Island, over very populated cities. I want to know why it didn't not make a scheduled landing and the Air Force didn't scramble jets until 30 minutes later when it was flying over DC. That could've been a bigger tragedy than it was, had it crashed in New York City or in downtown DC. It was flying over Philly, Baltimore...it was a huge risk to people on the ground. How was it flying for several hours without any ATC contact? [/quote]
