pretty crazy, last year he stoped here in Fort Myers, FL for the fundraiser dinner @ Gulf Harbour with Al Hofamn (SP?) - president of WCI. security was crazy, they had 1/2 of the city blocked off, and since i still had my jetta with limo tint on it, i got pulled over 3 times within an hour & searched. haha

that time was when we were on HIGH alert here, so they actually searched the entire route he traveled, blocked off each street way far, and moved all objects such as trash bins, searched each mailbox on the route etc..etc..etc..

Well, all heads of state have the 10mile/2000' separation, but nothing more.
The Chancellor flies frequently through our airspace, just a normal flight really.



But agree with Iceman, interesting to see the whole works up close, AF1, SAM, and a United 747 with press etc. Total of 700 people being moved under military
precision.
Impressive to see the co-ordination and synchronicity of it all.

This is the place to be for the mentally disturbed "smart" people.
