 SMOKETOWN, Pa. (AP) - The men flying in a Cessna that ventured into restricted airspace near the White House and caused a panic in the nation's capital Wednesday were aware of the heavy flight restrictions around Washington, D.C., friends and relatives say.
Hayden Sheaffer was described as a veteran pilot. His companion, Troy Martin, is working toward his pilot's license.
The plane they were flying belongs to Vintage Aero Club, a group of about 10 people who fly it out of Smoketown Airport in Lancaster County, said club member Merv King, a salesman from Gordonville.
