British pilot who 'buzzed' Bush ranch to be deported

Following up to Pat

Now, walking into "town" carrying a gas can? What is the purpose of that?

to try and get some gas?

It's eccentric behavior that might be thought of as normal in England,

eccentric? Walking down the road!

Clearly, the airforce must have received some sort of "stand down"
order, and no doubt "Kirk's" Super Cub was in fact a disguised
military aircraft. I'm sure a controlled demolition was involved
somewhere too.

I've been past the ranch on a bicycle, more than once. There is nothing on
the road telling someone which property belongs to anyone. You just have to
know in advance and the average person wouldn't know. *At the gate, you
cannot see any buildings. They're that far away! You can stand at the gate
and look around, but you will see nothing but acres of rolling pasture.

The Secret Service have a compound a little closer to town, and you sure can
tell what that is from all of the activity, but, get a grip he George
Bush was not there! Why on earth would the USAF fly planes over ranch land
when nobody is there? To protect the mesquite bushes?

As for the"town", that is stretching it a bit, too. This is a small group of
buildings along a farm to market road out in the plains. I don't even
remember seeing a stop light. We stopped at the local church for a rest
break---I was riding in the Waco Wild West 100 bicycle charity ride they
have every year in October. One of the attractions for the bicycle ride is
that it goes "past the Western White House." *But, realistically, the better
benefit of that ride is that it stops at the Mars Candy Bar factory in Waco.

Please get over your impression that the word "ranch" evokes. *This property
is nothing but a few thousand acres of pasture, woodland, and maybe a creek
or two. There are no herds of cattle or cowboys or anything of that sort.
It's more like a country retreat than a working ranch.

Sory Pat - It was a tongue in cheek comment alluding to the 11/9
Konspiract Krowd..

Errrr.. to get some petrol to take back to your vehicle which stopped
due to lack of petrol, thus forcing you to use your legs? presumably,
a Piper Cub won't fit on your average forecourt either..

It's eccentric behavior that might be thought of as normal in England, but
this is a sleepy hamlet with no foot traffic at all.

Nothing to see here, folks, move right along.

There's no gas station in that town.

Yes, Mike. No gas station, just a small collection of houses along a farm to
market road. Just one little cafe.

There's no gas station there.

And, would a Piper Cub take automobile gasoline? And, why wouldn't he have
figured out where to get his fuel in advance? And, would one small can put
enough fuel in a Piper Cub to be useful?

Just little questions like those....

....therefore arrest, put in mental asylum and deport....or should they
wait for some answers before making any decisions....

Yes, Mike. No gas station,

that does make it a little eccentric, might look like you are thinking
arson!

Ummmm, maybe his mapreading was bad? You said he had been rescued
before......

Anyone expressing gratitude to Bush for ANYTHING must definitely be a
mental case! ;-)

Of course, this would be your typical response...Do you ever have anything
nice to say about anyone?

might have been better to thank the coast guard

True, but it sounds as if his elevator did not go all the way to the top!

No, she's just a nutty old crackpot.
