“The source added that US air traffic control can legally ground the plane and take Snowden into custody on charges of espionage, theft and conversion of government property. However, the pilot may change the course of the flight so as not to pass through American airspace.”
- Well this article is complete bullshit. Tell me how exactly we’d “ground” the plane. ATC: “Hey bro, land here because we say so.” Pilot: “Nope.” Conversation over. Also, half the Atlantic ocean is owned by New York Oceanic control, and while it’s not technically US territorial airspace, you really can’t get from Moscow to Cuba without talking to American controllers.
