They are the military the can do what they want. Enough said.
The FAA and the USAF disagree with you. Until we officially declare war on Pilatus anyway.
Sounds like Both GA Pilots were full of them self's. "He's to close to my airplane" Really? I mean Really? The F-16 cost 10 times as much as "Your Plane"
I've been unable to find the FAR that states required separation distance is inversely proportional to the resale value differential of the participating aircraft.
The F-16 also has a marked advantage in the ratio of ejection seats to passengers.
I would have grabbed a camera and took a picture.
As a passenger, sure. As a pilot your primary responsibility is the safety of your aircraft and passengers, not sightseeing.
The only thing you are right ton is the FAA and USAF disagreeing.
As far as the Ejection seat comment. How do you know there were passengers on board? Now where in that article did it state that it was a Pt. 135 or PT 91 flight. It could have been a Part 91 ferry or home flight.
Your pilot comment is laughable, Either you have no idea about real world Aviation or you work at a FSDO. I have seen thousands of Pictures that pilots have showed me of landmarks, Other Aircraft, and of each other messing around on the flight deck. These are pilots with Commercial and ATP ratings. Everything is not always done by the book.
