As he surveyed the scene, he pulled out his notepad to take notes for filling out the accident report later.As the patrolman wrote, he said each word aloud slowly in his southern drawl, documenting the important facts:“There appears to be one vehicle. Front of vehicle is smashed and engine appears to be inside the front seat of the vehicle.The windshield shattered when vehicle came in contact with light pole on 63rd and Vine.Victim did not appear to have worn seat belt as he exited vehicle through windshield, also making contact with light pole, then coming to rest in several pieces.”The patrolman continued writing in his notepad …“Arm in grass. G-R-A-S-S.”“Leg in berm. B-E-R-M.”“Head in bou-le-vard. B-U-E-L-A (damn) B-U-L-L-A (DAMN IT).”(kicking sound, then floppa-floppa-floppa)“Head in ditch. D-I-T-C-H.”

U.S. v. Reynolds, 345 U.S. 1 (1953)The landmark care regarding national security and the doctrine known as the state secrets privilege. The state secrets privilege holds that critical evidence may be withheld from a legal case when the Federal Government, in sworn affidavits, asserts a claim that further court discovery proceedings would endanger national security by disclosing sensitive classified information. The government can assert this claim without showing the actual evidence to the court and the court must remove the privileged information from the case. If the exclusion of the evidence results in one side not being able to prove its case, that side's claims or defenses will be dismissed.The importance of this case is that it the defining case on national security and the withholding of classified information by the government. It has granted the government carte blanche to withhold evidence and have cases dismissed solely on their word that national security is implicated. And it was all based on a lie or if you prefer a hoax by our own government.On October 6, 1948, an Air Force plane exploded and fell out of the sky in Georgia. It was doing experimental work on a guided missile system called Banshee. Five of the eight crew members aboard and four of the five civilians died. The other four parachuted to safety.It came out in an interview with the one surviving civilian that he and his non–Air Force fellows had not been instructed in the use of escape hatches; and there had been trouble with fires on other B-29s, trouble which the Air Force knew full well about but did nothing to prevent. Thus it seemed a clear cut case of negligence.The widows of the dead crewman sued the Air Force in a Pennsylvania district court. Their lawyer, Charles Biddle, asked for information in the Air Force’s keeping—the official accident report and depositions from the three surviving crewmen. The Air Force refused to surrender the documents, saying that the report was classified and the depositions were “hearsay.” They maintained with great and ferocious determination that the requested documents contained highly classified information about military operations and were state secrets that could not be disclosed. Could they really have state secrets in them? Was the accident caused by secret Banshee activities? There was no way of knowing any of this, since the government blocked all access to information.The Pennsylvania district judge, William Kirkpatrick, was not impressed by the Air Force argument and ordered the government to either turn over the documents or pay the damages the plaintiffs were demanding, saying he would review the material in camera to see if their release would be dangerous. The Air Force argued that testimony by the three surviving crewmen should be enough for the plaintiffs’ purposes, without depositions or documents such as the accident report. .Biddle claimed that he could not knowledgeably question them without the accident report. Judge Kirkpatrick agreed. Still the Air Force refused to release the documents, and Judge Kirkpatrick awarded the women their damages.The Air Force appealed this decision to the Third Circuit Court of Appeals. Here the Air Force again alleged that there were state secrets that had to be protected, for the sake of national security and refused to produce the documents , even for the purpose of allowing an in camera inspection by the court. The Circuit Court affirmed the women’s award. The Air Force lawyers then appealed to the Supreme Court headed by Chief Justice Fred Vinson.Chief Justice Vinson is considered one of the worst judges ever to sit on the Supreme Court. In a 1970 poll of sixty-five law deans and other legal scholars , he was the only Chief Justice to be ranked “Failure” and one of only eight “Failures” in the first one hundred Supreme Court justices. When Harry Truman wanted to seize the steel mills in 1952, his friend Justice Vinson assured him beforehand that he had every right to do it. When the Court came to rule on the mill seizures, Vinson was joined by another “Failure” (Sherman Minton) and an “Average” in the ratings (Stanley Reed) to make up the minority supporting Truman.In Reynolds, Vinson wrote the majority decision , vacating the lower courts and denying the request to produce the accident report and/or other documents. He refused to call for an in camera look at the Air Force documents, and wrote that the Korean War made it important to respect state secrets:In the instant case we cannot escape judicial notice that this is a time of vigorous preparation for national defense. Experience in the past war has made it common knowledge that air power is one of the most potent weapons in our scheme of defense, and that newly developing electronic devices have greatly enhanced the effective use of air power. It is equally apparent that these electronic devices must be kept secret if their full military advantage is to be exploited in the national interests. On the record before the trial court it appeared that this accident occurred to a military plane which had gone aloft to test secret electronic equipment. Certainly there was a reasonable danger that the accident investigation report would contain references to the secret electronic equipment which was the primary concern of the mission.In reversing the appeal, the majority sent the case back to the original court for any further proceedings “consistent with the views expressed in this opinion.” The case did settle for an award not far from the one first granted and the women agreed to a final release of all claims against the government.The story seemed to be over, and it was until 1996. The daughter of one of the RCA engineers who died in the crash, Judy Palya Loether, who was only seven weeks old at the time of the accident, grew up with a great curiosity about the father she never knew. She was also a constant surfer of all things online. In 2000, while looking around on her computer for information on what her father did and how he died, she came into contact with a man who collected old aviation reports which had now been declassified under Clinton. The report of her father's accident , which had the lowest classification possible, had now been totally declassified and believe it or not, there were no state sensitive secrets in it, either now or back in 1948.Instead, the report proved gross incompetence on the part of the Air Force. The plane had a very troubled history which was ignored and there was compelling evidence of human error. The story was disgraceful and embarrassing to the Air Force and it was clear to all who read it that it was to prevent humiliation, and not concerns over national security, that was the motivation for the Air Force to try to bury this report. The daughter tried to reopen the case in 2001. By this time, Reynolds had been followed by some sixty two cases , all of which withheld evidence on the sole basis of a government affidavit claiming that national security was in danger of being compromised.Supreme Court Filing Claims Air Force, Government Fraud in 1953 CaseThe attempt to reopen was not successful. The government argued a “mosaic theory,” saying that information not directly concerned with national security may be pieced together with other pieces of the “mosaic” to give a different picture. Only government experts, not lay observers or even judges, are qualified to see such technical connections. By this test, almost any information can be presumed to have a subtle connection with national security. The accident report did not have national security information, but it “might lead to disclosure” of connected things that would pertain to national security, the government argued successfully. The Third Circuit ruled, in a case that was now renamed Herring v. the United States, that there had been no fraud upon the court and the Supreme Court declined to grant review.Page on Fas(Herring Decision)This hoax has institutionalized the walling of the executive branch from any meaningful judicial review. Torture, detention, extradition etc, have all been deemed not subject to review based on the Reynolds precedents. In effect, Reynolds sanctioned a lie by our government.

In a few words, YES if the storm cell (not all clouds are problematic) is under their assigned altitude. NO, if the storm cell is higher than 35,000–38,000 feet. Check out the accident report for a DC-9 Southern Airways crash in East Georgia, they were flying through a rainstorm, the engines flamed out because of heavy water ingestion, the aircraft went down. I used to fly to Denver 4–5 times a month. During the summer the thunderheads were frequent making the routing filled with twists, turns, and holding patterns. There have been ,any crashes thought to be caused by flying into thunderheads, storm cells and lately we’ve learned a great deal about microbursts. One such incident brought down a PanAm 727 taking off from New Orleans. It's best to give plenty of room to storms, look out for wind shear, and microbursts the later can be close to the ground or 1000’s of feet above. Supercooled water droplets can be found at high altitudes robbing an aircraft of lift.
