Pilot barred after two Cuban airspace violations
Jose Basulto, head of the Cuban exile group Brothers to the Rescue, had his commercial pilot license revoked by the FAA for two airspace violations including a flight near Cuba on the day four colleagues were shot down. Basulto accused the Clinton administration of vendetta while officials cited ignored warnings. In a separate item, President Clinton proposed a global ban on land mines but allowed military use in Korea and other conflict zones. In Montana, FBI and Freemen negotiators met on a muddy road near the group's ranch with Sen. Charles Duke observing and names such as Rodney Skurdal and Edwin Clark named by a local resident.
