New Report Indicates Mrs. Obama's Plane Was In Danger Of Crashing


The First Family: Malia Obama, First Lady Michelle Obama, President Barack Obama and Sasha Obama

On April 19, 2011, the Judiciary Report rhetorically opined that First Lady Michelle Obama's plane nearly crashed into a massive military cargo jet, which could have killed her (Did Mrs. Obama's Plane Nearly Crash With A Cargo Jet).

No, I was not being dramatic. Three days later on April 22, 2011, the site's suspicions were confirmed, as a Reuters article stated Mrs. Obama's plane was much closer to the military jet than was previously reported on April 19, 2011 and was SECONDS away from crashing into it, had the pilot not pulled up and aborted the landing.

It turns out, the First Lady's pilot was given wrong information from the air traffic controllers, as he was told he was further away from the large military cargo jet than he actually was, which is terrible, as they could have crashed into an aircraft that is the equivalent of a metal wall. To make matters worse, the maneuver the air traffic controllers ordered Mrs. Obama's pilot to make, brought them perilously closer to the military cargo jet, rather than further away. Hmm, makes you wonder.

The White House tried to down play the incident the day it happened, to assuage public fears, but the mere fact it came out at all, said to me that something had seriously gone wrong. As a result of this incident, the FAA will no longer handle Mrs. Obama's planes.

Did Mrs. Obama's Plane Nearly Crash With A Cargo Jet


U.S. First Lady, Michelle Obama to President Barack Obama: You need to fix this. I was almost bird food!

News out of Washington indicates, a plane carrying U.S. First Lady, Michelle Obama, wife of President Barack Obama, was diverted, after almost colliding with a 200-ton military cargo jet in neighboring Maryland. The First Lady's plane was attempting to land at Andrews Air Force Base.

Obama: Somebody's gonna get fired!

Though the incident seems quite suspicious, an air traffic controller is being blamed for the error. This could not have come at a worst time, as air traffic controllers are under intense scrutiny in America for falling asleep on the job. The ongoing scandal lead to the resignation of an FAA executive.
