Military pilot safe after emergency Wis. landing
MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Airport authorities in Madison say a military pilot enforcing a no-fly zone for the president was unhurt after the pilot had to make an emergency landing.
The Air National Guard F-15 was enforcing a flight-restriction zone Sunday over Chicago for President Barack Obama.
A fire indicator light came on so the aircraft landed at the Dane County Regional Airport about 5 p.m.
Defense officials say other aircraft were able to maintain the no-fly zone so there was never a gap in coverage.
The U.S. Air Force is investigating to see if there was an actual fire in the F-15.

With our President hailing from Chicago, we will see a lot more of these types of things in this area.

Thank God he is safe. I like reading stories that have happy endings. I wonder how long I'll have to wait for the next one...
