Narrative:

The aircraft, a nanchang CJ6-a is a chinese primary trainer. I was in the process of installing a radio, transponder, and encoder. The flight was to be a pleasure flight. We arrived at kittie hill airport around XA00 to prepare the aircraft for flight. The WX was hazy, with broken clouds at about 1500 ft AGL. I called the airport in temple, and asked about arrival with no radio, as the installation was not yet complete. The WX was good, clouds breaking up and should be clearing by the time we got there. I asked if there were any NOTAMS issued, and was told 'not that I know of.' I took off at about XA45 and picked up I-35 to follow to temple. I climbed on top to about 2500 to 3000 ft MSL and continued toward my destination. As we neared approximately half way, we could see I-35 most of the time through the clouds. As I continued the clouds thickened, and we could see less and less of the ground. I knew that temple was clearing, so I maintained my compass heading, expecting to see the airport within a few mins. I continued on until I felt we had passed the airport, did a 180 degree turn and headed back toward kittie hill. About this time, we saw an F16 in the distance, but he never came closer than a quarter to half mile from us. I assumed he was watching over P49, and did not realize I was close to the ranch. I continued south, occasionally seeing the F16 in the distance. He never came close or acted aggressive toward me. After nearing belton, I found a hole in the clouds, descended, and returned to kittie hill airport. Upon landing at kittie hill airport, I was met by the city police and was asked to remain until a secret service agent arrived. I was then informed that I had penetrated the prohibited area. I told the agent what had happened, and then he left.

Narrative: THE ACFT, A NANCHANG CJ6-A IS A CHINESE PRIMARY TRAINER. I WAS IN THE PROCESS OF INSTALLING A RADIO, XPONDER, AND ENCODER. THE FLT WAS TO BE A PLEASURE FLT. WE ARRIVED AT KITTIE HILL ARPT AROUND XA00 TO PREPARE THE ACFT FOR FLT. THE WX WAS HAZY, WITH BROKEN CLOUDS AT ABOUT 1500 FT AGL. I CALLED THE ARPT IN TEMPLE, AND ASKED ABOUT ARR WITH NO RADIO, AS THE INSTALLATION WAS NOT YET COMPLETE. THE WX WAS GOOD, CLOUDS BREAKING UP AND SHOULD BE CLRING BY THE TIME WE GOT THERE. I ASKED IF THERE WERE ANY NOTAMS ISSUED, AND WAS TOLD 'NOT THAT I KNOW OF.' I TOOK OFF AT ABOUT XA45 AND PICKED UP I-35 TO FOLLOW TO TEMPLE. I CLBED ON TOP TO ABOUT 2500 TO 3000 FT MSL AND CONTINUED TOWARD MY DEST. AS WE NEARED APPROX HALF WAY, WE COULD SEE I-35 MOST OF THE TIME THROUGH THE CLOUDS. AS I CONTINUED THE CLOUDS THICKENED, AND WE COULD SEE LESS AND LESS OF THE GND. I KNEW THAT TEMPLE WAS CLRING, SO I MAINTAINED MY COMPASS HDG, EXPECTING TO SEE THE ARPT WITHIN A FEW MINS. I CONTINUED ON UNTIL I FELT WE HAD PASSED THE ARPT, DID A 180 DEG TURN AND HEADED BACK TOWARD KITTIE HILL. ABOUT THIS TIME, WE SAW AN F16 IN THE DISTANCE, BUT HE NEVER CAME CLOSER THAN A QUARTER TO HALF MILE FROM US. I ASSUMED HE WAS WATCHING OVER P49, AND DID NOT REALIZE I WAS CLOSE TO THE RANCH. I CONTINUED S, OCCASIONALLY SEEING THE F16 IN THE DISTANCE. HE NEVER CAME CLOSE OR ACTED AGGRESSIVE TOWARD ME. AFTER NEARING BELTON, I FOUND A HOLE IN THE CLOUDS, DESCENDED, AND RETURNED TO KITTIE HILL ARPT. UPON LNDG AT KITTIE HILL ARPT, I WAS MET BY THE CITY POLICE AND WAS ASKED TO REMAIN UNTIL A SECRET SERVICE AGENT ARRIVED. I WAS THEN INFORMED THAT I HAD PENETRATED THE PROHIBITED AREA. I TOLD THE AGENT WHAT HAD HAPPENED, AND THEN HE LEFT.
