No doubt many of you already saw this article from today's WaPo, but for those who haven't, here's the link. The URL is so long I used tinyurl to make a shorter one.

"The plane is a 1960s turboprop with an odd array of antennas on its back end and the name of a Cuban national hero painted on its tail. It can fly, but it doesn't. Government orders...

"The plane was outfitted to fly over the ocean and broadcast an American-run TV station into Cuba."
