Not even remotely funny. It would serve them right if the country of Peru just kept the Tri-Star. Hopefully those pilots will never be in US airspace.Joe Lorenc

And there in lies the humor. Hehe. If people doing stupid and illegal things wasn't funny, shows like Cops wouldn't be nearly as entertaining. :+----------------------------------------------------------------John MorganReal World: KGEG, UND Aerospace Spokane Satillite, Private ASEL 141.2 hrs, 314 landings, 46 inst. apprs.Virtual: MSFS 2004"There is a feeling about an airport that no other piece of ground can have.

I know it was a really stupid thing to do but the way I see it - no one got hurt and in this world where the daily news is kill, murder, maim, rape, shoot, stab etc. etc. its nice to read something like this for a change thats makes you have a good laugh at the goofiness of it all!
