You know what was a great idea? To send a low-flying plane cruising down the Hudson river this morning, days after a dude was fired for authorizing a similar flight that scared New York.

Moments ago, walls were rattled, countless takes ruined, and nerves frayed by an unidentified flying something that just buzzed the sky about the Warner Bros. lot. Writes a spooked operative:
