Why Did the FAA Secure Air Space over the Nashville RV Explosion Site?

On Christmas morning, an RV played an evacuation announcement before exploding. The blast did damage to several buildings, including one used by AT&T that took out communications equipment. And now the Federal Aviation Administration has declared a No-Fly Zone over part of Nashville, Tennessee.

While flights out of Nashville have resumed, the FAA is still prohibiting “all aircraft flight operations” over an area encompassing a 1-nautical-mile radius of the blast site and has declared those skies “National Defense Airspace,” WKRN-TV reported.

According to the warning posted on the FAA website, “pilots who do not adhere to the following procedures may be intercepted, detained and interviewed by law enforcement/security personnel.”

The most obvious reason (I think) is to keep nosey pilots of planes or helicopters (news choppers) from taking aerial photographs or videos of the affected area.

That’s not suspicious.

According to Western Journal, the order is in effect until Wednesday.

That must be how long they need to remove whatever is actually there that got hit that they don’t want anyone to see.

I’m sure there are other operational or security reasons, but they are not as interesting to contemplate. And after the Vegas Shooting, people have become more sensitive to the Feds going out of their way to hide things from the people.

A no-fly zone certainly fits that template. It also meets the criteria for this remark from our first piece on this incident.

“They’ll decide what this was, then everything that doesn’t support that narrative gets scrubbed from the internet.”
