FAA Creates ‘No Fly Zone’ Over Joe Biden’s Hometown

Things that make you go ‘hmmm’…

With the 2020 election drawing to a close, at least in theory, there are plenty of machinations occurring behind the scenes and at the national level.

For instance, due to the heightened threat of political violence here in the United States, law enforcement and military officials have been scrambling from coast to coast, hoping to be in place if and when the unrest begins.  Of course, we all do hope that this is just overkill, but these conversations have certainly been occurring.

Now, in a somewhat mysterious move, the Federal Aviation Administration has enacted a “no fly zone” over the hometown of former Vice President Joe Biden.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) on Wednesday issued a flight advisory for Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden’s hometown of Wilmington, Del., directing private aircraft pilots to observe a no-fly zone around the former vice president’s home as he moves closer to securing an election victory.

A flight advisory from the agency urges all pilots not departing or arriving from nearby New Castle Airport or taking part in emergency missions to avoid the area unless otherwise approved by officials.

And it’s not just about airplanes, either.

Drone operators were also warned as part of the advisory that unauthorized flights in the area could result in damage or destruction of their property.

While the FAA didn’t give any specific reason for the issuance of the ordinance, this sort of protection around a politically-sensitive location isn’t out of the ordinary either.
