[quote=Anonymous]When reached by phone early Wednesday, Representative Joaquin Castro, a Democrat who represents San Antonio, said he did not know more about the closure. Vincent Perez, a Texas State representative from El Paso, was similarly unsure. “I have never heard of an American airspace being shutdown for 10 days, absent a major emergency,” Mr. Perez said. The airport said in a statement that the restriction had been issued “on short notice” and that it was waiting for additional guidance from the F.A.A. In a notice, the F.A.A. said the federal government “may use deadly force” if an aircraft violating the airspace is determined to pose “an imminent security threat.” The F.A.A. did not immediately respond to a request for comment.[/quote]
