Pilot Reports 'Missile' Fired at Jetliner Near LAX


FBI agents and Homeland Security officials spent the weekend investigating the report of a possible missile fired at an American Airlines plane taking off from Los Angeles International Airport.
Sources tell ABC News the pilot of American Airlines Flight 621, en route to Chicago, radioed air traffic controllers after takeoff from LAX. He told them a missile had been fired at the aircraft and missed.

The plane was over water when the pilot said he saw a smoke trail pass by the cockpit.

FBI agents believe it was a flare or a bottle rocket, but say they may never know if that's what it actually was.
Well, well, well look what the MSM is finally getting around to reporting. Listeners to my show knew about this Wednesday morning thanks to Doug Hagmann of NEIN. We got a call from an Airline Pilot in Orlando, FL. who told us of a similar incident at the Newark airport several months ago. Where a manpad was spotted not far from the landing strip and all pilots were ordered to switch over to a special frequency.

Let's hear from Doug Hagmann self appointed wannabe CIA agent. I'd rather hear what Austin Powers has to say.
