Nope,

Never heard that one, but we did hear about the two airspace violators mid afternoon. One at 8500' and another at 9000' or so heading up north.
A Cherokee and a light twin, lucky they were not in DC!

EDIT:

Just found this!

Thanks That makes me feel much better, would have hated to listen to the demis of a pilot on the radio. I'll have to pass that along to my Uncle and his friend.

Any idea on the Provost at the Airport?
