It's on Aero News Now... (about the guy who buzzed the football game). Apparently he's done this before they caught up with him after a Montana newspaper published his name.

Wait, I thought that just because you fly a cool airplane means you don't have to abide by the rules...

I suppose the feds are already on it, so there's no
harm in posting this (this is the airplane):

Whew!!!!

The first caption photo had Moonbeam!! Now it has a generic Mustang photo.

Wow, life is tough in the 'high speed pass' lane.

(I wrote Aero-News to ask that they remove my photo, lest any wayward FAA person get a weird idea.)

Yes the FAA has already busted him which is why I posted this, I would not have posted anything if his name wasn't already public. Didn't realize that was Moonbeam as I didn't click the pic. ANN are pretty good at removing stuff. They once advertised a couple of years ago the Ft Lauderdale airshow with a pic of the CAF B-26, I protested and they removed it.

Hmm...

What's worse, the FAA ruling also states Mallette pulled the same stunt three months before, over St. Cloud, MN. The ruling alleges Mallette failed to establish communications with the airport tower in that incident -- and that he then proceeded to execute "an unsafe low and fast pass" between the tower and a taxiway "at a low altitude and at a rate of speed higher than was prudent."


Was he up there for the show at FCM?
