Declan is absolutely right. Dulles is actually located in Virginia, about 15 miles from the Capitol. Ronald Reagan ( AKA National Airport ) is the closest airport to the Capitol...but you absolutely can't see the Mall from the airport. It's also in Virginia, but next to Crystal City.

Even before 9/11, no planes were allowed near DC. Can you imagine a plane that close today? No Way.

Errors of continuity and downright silliness irk me...but the show could have some legs. Kathy Reich's "Temperance Brennan" books are actually very good, and they did a good job capturing the main character.

I'm just worried I'll get sucked in and BAM! -Another show on Fox that gets cancelled.

I tried watching it, I really did. I wanted to like it... but... I had to turn it off and watch something else after about half an hour. To me, there was nothing unique or engaging about this first episode (Profiler, CSI, The Inside, etc., etc., etc... it's all been done). And most of the "far out" or "silly" stuff was too irksome to ignore.

(Not to mention the wacky thought constantly in my head: Why isn't he bursting into flame?!?)

I think my trouble is the fact that I always compare new shows to Whedon shows. Most don't compare well.

I recorded it for a friend, though, so I may try watching it again. And maybe I'll try watching the next episode, cuz I really don't believe in first impressions. (Although, my first impression of hate for "Point Pleasant" didn't change, and that actually had Whedon folk working on it....)
