Ask the pilot

Propped up by a culture of fear, TSA has become a bureaucracy with too much power and little accountability. Where will the lunacy stop?

    Slightly off topic:

    I kind of halfread this article, but the whole time I was under the impression it was written by a stewardess. I then saw the "Ask the Pilot" headline and saw it was written by a male pilot.

    That explains my confusion. After working close by pilots for a summer, I found they are very similar to WHINY GIRLS!

    Don't know if its the 100's of thousands they make in salary, but nearly all of the ones i met were such primadonnas and crybabies. Totally explains this article!
