With the exeption that FAF was able to identify the aircraft as Russian Airforce a/c

Seems like that Russian military is testing its neighbours at all fronts

Interesting....ya know, Georgia has been in the news alot, ever since the Grenade thing during Bush's visit.

propably just a Russian (army) cargo palne... They have done the same thing to the Finns too...

The only country with big interes there is Russia. If the US needs to watch something there they'll probably use a satellite.
Russia fool nobody with such claims. I guess they have to play the cold war game with whatever country they can bother without getting into trouble.
