"A small aircraft (Cessna) made a flyover TMI at approximately 10:35 am.
"The site was not aware of this until they were notified by the FAA at Harrisburg International Airport at approximately 11 :45 am.
"The plane was flying at about 3500 feet and went as low as 1,000 feet and was headed towards Lancaster.
The pilot was not answering his radio and this was deemed somewhat suspicious by the FAA.
"The plane finally headed for and landed at Trenton area airport. Local Law Enforcement met the individual for an interview to assess why he wouldn't answer his radio; if other personnel were on board; if there were any pictures or video, etc., to make a determination if it was indeed suspicious.
"This was not a direct flight over the plant. Student pilot on his first solo flight. Got lost and flew near the plant and was not deemed a threat."
This incident initially received FAA attention because the pilot was descending from 3500 feet to 1000 feet while heading toward TMI.
R1 (Dimitriadis) knew of the event and shortly after the event pressed the licensee for official notification to the Headquarters Operations Officer. On 10/7/08 R1 notified IL TAB 1(b)(7)(C) t*

On 02/15/04 at 2050 EST, two operators were on break outside when they observed the running lights of an aircraft. The aircraft was from two to two and one half miles from the plant (outside the Owners Control Area) at an approximate altitude of 1000 feet. The aircraft was initially flying west towards the plant when it suddenly turned towards the northerly direction and started gaining altitude. The operators could not tell if the aircraft was an airplane or a helicopter. Security Shift Supervisor notified the Wilkes-Barre Airport and informed them of the aircraft. The aircraft controllers said that they had their radar turned off but at 2125 EST they had received a radio call from a Life Flight Helicopter from Geisinger Hospital. The helicopter was traveling from the northeast to the southwest. The Shift Security Supervisor also notified the Pennsylvania State Police and the Philadelohia FBI office of this event.

"A small aircraft (Cessna) made a flyover TMI at approximately 10:35 am.
"The site was not aware of this until they were notified by the FAA at Harrisburg International Airport at approximately 11 :45 am.
"The plane was flying at about 3500 feet and went as low as 1,000 feet and was headed towards Lancaster.
The pilot was not answering his radio and this was deemed somewhat suspicious by the FAA.
"The plane finally headed for and landed at Trenton area airport. Local Law Enforcement met the individual for an interview to assess why he wouldn't answer his radio; if other personnel were on board; if there were any pictures or video, etc., to make a determination if it was indeed suspicious.
"This was not a direct flight over the plant. Student pilot on his first solo flight. Got lost and flew near the plant and was not deemed a threat."
This incident initially received FAA attention because the pilot was descending from 3500 feet to 1000 feet while heading toward TMI.
R1 (Dimitriadis) knew of the event and shortly after the event pre~ licensee for official notification to the Headquarters Operations Officer. On 10/7/08 R1 notified IL TAB ~
