Pilot Says He Has Violated Crawford TFR Before
Two F-16s intercepted a small airplane that got a little too close to President Bush's ranch in Crawford, TX Friday night. The fighters guided the errant aircraft to nearby Waco Regional Airport, where the pilot made an uneventful landing.
Waco's KCEN-TV reports the pilot of the Cessna 172 was flying from the Dallas suburb of Mesquite to Georgetown, TX. The unidentified pilot told investigators his GPS wasn't working, and that he was unaware the TFR was active.
Perhaps most disturbing... is the pilot also said he has violated Crawford airspace once before
