Suicide by F16 fighter jet?
p2pnet news view Games | Off Topic:- A 31-year-old Canadian who’d reportedly spent hours on computer flight simulators tried to use his knowledge to commit suicide by F16, say reports.
He flew a Cessna from a training school in Thunder Bay, Ontario, entering American airspace where he was tailed by two by US jet fighters which tried to force him to land.
The man, Adam Dylan Leon, “spent hours on computerized flight simulations in his living room,” says the Toronto Star.
He was also planning a cross-Canada solo flight, says the story.
He’s being held by American immigration officials in Missouril, says The National, going on:
“Officials claim the man flew across three American states with the hope that he would be shot down by the military fighter jets that were sent to chase him.”
The Ottawa Citizen says according to Sergeant Dale Moreland, with the Missouri State Highway Patrol, the airplane wasn’t stolen and that “Leon had access to the airplane at Confederation College Aviation Centre where he was a student pilot.”

The US military defense system is always “wide awake” and working perfectly in these cases, scrambling jets to intercept anything unusual within about 10 minutes. Yet, on 9/11, 4 commercial jets were supposedly hijacked and cruising all over the map for over 1 1/2 hours, and we’re supposed to believe they couldn’t get even one jet out??

DA, Its the borders that get the tight attention!
9 11 was jets already inside the US, whole different thing!!
Please dont bad mouth what you dont seem to understand.

@NO1UNO:
You’re only assuming I know nothing about this.
9/11 was the ONLY example of when US defenses ever failed to intercept any aircraft that strayed from its legal flightcourse – inside, along, and outside its borders.
There are approximately 60-100 cases of this on record every year. It’s actually something that has become common knowledge these days. In every case, jets were deployed within 10 minutes.
One famous example would be the Payne Stewart incident. His private jet was intercepted soon after taking off!
He was one of about 70 intercept cases that year.
I invite you to look it up yourself.
It’s a very common routine with a consistent success record, which is why it is a major point of contention with US Government’s official account of 9/11.

Well, I stand (sit) corrected! I tend to get uptight about the 9/11 stuff, didnt mean to offend!

Devil’s Advocate’s assessment is ‘spot on’; i.e., every USofA citizen (except for a very few) have had the wool pulled over their eyes – and, even then, it’s 50% rayon. WTC7, Payne Stewart and Adam Dylan Leon ARE pieces of a puzzle that, when/if, America ever ‘correctly assembles’, will surely point to the fact that 911 WAS an ‘inside job.’ Even Osama ‘Ben Missing’ was surprised that both buildings actually fell ‘straight down’ – and, sadly, HE understood the Twin Towers’ construction far better than the NYC FD and a host of others! The 1933 Reichstag conflagration, the Gliwice Radio Tower invasion, the Pearl Harbor attack, and, yes, even the Tonkin Gulf Incident were ALL orchestrated events that served to galvanize an unsuspecting populace into supporting unpopular wars. Such is the way of ‘true’ politicians! And, when America wakes up to these facts, the ‘end of the Republic’ as we know it will definitely be upon us all!
