A jumbo jet being chased by a F-16 fighter jets buzzed Lower Manhattan this morning, panicking New Yorkers, many of whom were forced to evacuate their office buildings.

It was not a terrorist attack, however, but a photo opportunity for Air Force One, sources told the Post.

President Obama was in Washington at the time, but the low-flying 747 circling the Statue of Liberty was one of the planes used as Air Force One, sources said.

City officials were notified of the planned flight, but did not share that information with New Yorkers, many of whom said they were terrified.

But no worries, the WH spokesman (Gibbs) didn't know anything about it.

Press is already asking who is responsible for this "mistaken" Fear-mongering?

Who Will Be Held Accountable for This Morning's 9/11-esque Scare?

Whose idea was it to not inform the public when authorizing an extremely low-flying airliner to fly over the Hudson River near lower Manhattan? Federal Aviation Administration, U.S. Air Force, New York State or city officials? Or perhaps a better question is, who had responsibility to inform the public, and who dropped the ball?

The Wall Street Journal has posted some of the first video of the flight . . .

I wonder how many people recognized it as AF 1 and were saying, "Pull the trigger, for the love of God and country, pull the freakin trigger man!" :lol:
