The North American Aerospace Defence Command says it has scrambled two F-16 fighter jets to aid an aircraft that appears to have crashed into the Atlantic. The fighter jets tried to provide assistance to what NORAD in a statement called an "unresponsive general aviation aircraft". The aircraft took off from Waukesha Airport, in Wisconsin, and was headed to Manassas Airport, in Virginia, when it crashed into the ocean, NORAD said on Saturday. NORAD is the joint Canadian and American command in charge of maritime warning, aerospace warning and aerospace control for the neighbouring nations. linkDoes anyone else find it very odd that they send two fighter jets to the crashed aircraft instead of a boat or helicopter maybe??? What are the fighter jets going to do to any survivors? Wave as they pass?
