There was a bit of a scare this morning in lower Manhattan, when a 747 was seen flying low over the tip of the island with a fighter jet following nearby. It turns out it was a DOD photo op, taking one of the jets used for Air Force One and having some low-flying shots near like the Statue of Liberty. Apparently, all the key agencies like FAA were notified. Local authorities were apparently notified but with instructions not to pass the information on the general public.
