I’ve heard rumors that after 9/11 if a plane crosses the Potomac into the no fly zone that it gets shot down. Dunno if that’s true at all though lol

Um, no. Gets a quick escort of fighter jets saying, “—ahem” to the pilot, but someone just wandering thru the ADIZ like a dope will probably not just get immediately shot down.

During storm fronts planes will be directed to fly over NW DC, about as far as Wisconsin Ave. Basically far enough to be ahead of the front.

If I'm out walking and a plane flies East of me it means I need to nope out of there as as some combination of rain/wind/lightning/hail is imminent.
