Spying on North Korea with U-2 fliers

Korean flyoversHere's something bizarre: the U.S. Air Force flies recon missions over North Korea constantly. Did you know that? This picture is from a declassified "recce forecast" directive of the Air Force, obtained by the Federation of American Scientists. How would you like to be the U-2 pilot on that mission? On the other hand, if you were a militant atheist state bent on scaring the world and dealing in nuclear parts, how would you like to be photographed in zones A, B, C, and D?
