Inbound it was closer to 1920.

Are you still in the Bay Area?
If planes are allowed to fly that close to the golden gate bridge, what is to stop a terrorist from using a larger GA plane to take out some of those cables? One could do a lot of damage, especially if it were rush hour. Call me being pessimistic, but I'm surrpised no one has ever tried such an attack.

You're being pessimistic! Those cables would cut a plane in half before they'd snap I'm guessing...
I'd have to guess that they are a least 8" steel cables vs. aluminum airplane... Bridge wins I would think.
Those cables would slice through an aluminum plane like butter. If terrorism is a concern, I'd be more worried about explosive laden trucks than light aircraft.
Impossible; I checked my magnetos during my runup, no misbehavin' at all.. . .I'd be far more worried about Magneto ripping the bridge apart and using it as a path to Alcatraz for his evil mutant army!
OK I'm back in SFO at the Embassy Suites South SF . . . right across the bay from you!Yup, holed up over in the East Bay, flying out of KOAK.
