    Does this mean someone could theoretically fly a plane unimpeded to a location that could fix a ton of political problems in sonic the hedgehog?

      There has always been a theoretical fear of someone loading up a Cessna with TNT and low-flying that into the oval. When civilian GPS first came about, they had to fuzz certain locations to make this less attractive. So far no one has tried with small automated planes.

      These airspaces are controlled by the Air Force tho who would probably notice and implement countermeasures.

        Do you remember when a swarm of automated drones were released from a lorry outside a russian air field and destroyed or damaged 10s of Russian bombers? That was pretty freaking cool. Not really related to anything in this thread in particular, but every now and then I enjoy reminiscing.
