Oops, NO GPS, Where do we land?

HOUSTON (AP) — A Mexican military helicopter has landed in Texas by mistake.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection says the helicopter landed Saturday afternoon at Laredo International Airport after the pilot mistook the airport for a landing strip in Nuevo Laredo, Mexico.

Actually I bet they were supposed to pick up a load of grenade launchers Hillary at the State Dept sold them ... they should have gone to AFW airport http://www.allianceairport.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Whether the needs are air cargo, corporate aviation or military, Fort Worth Alliance Airport can accommodate.

They probably paid in cocaine.

Or maybe they are gauging our reaction:

The Houston Chronicle reports this is the second time Mexico's military has crossed into Texas in recent weeks. A convoy rolled across the international bridge at Donna in July.

So they can fly a 10 million dollar Blackhawk but can't read a sectional, run a timer or use an E-6B. Shoot, if we were Russia we'd have blown them out of the air; just ask the survivors of KAL 007...oh wait, there weren't any. We are literally at war with these yahoos and we let them just come in and then leave again.

I agree, I think this was a test.
