F-16s take on pilot who utters 'hostile takeover'
F-16 fighter jets were scrambled to intercept a small plane after the pilot used the term "hostile takeover."

Authorities say the pilot was talking about the takeover of a company when he used the term.

However a frantic air traffic controller couldn't confirm that because the pilot had turned off his radio. Within minutes, F-16s were airborne to intercept the plane Monday evening just outside of Oklahoma City and escort it to the Clay County airport near Mosby.
