Need some help with a project I'm working on

Who is she?

Thought you were, from your post the other day on the sexist/racist Indian pilots thread. Sounded like you were talking about yourself when you were referencing your rights to live your life however you wanted to in regards to women's rights.

If you're not a "she", my apologies, read your post wrong. :beer:

This is getting intertaining now....but be careful though, you don't want to end up on double secret probation!!!!

Sooo.....Do all of you highly security sensitive folks ride to and from the airport in a van? Do the vans you ride in have the name of the hotel plastered all over it? Do you get on this van in one of the most publicly visible areas (like maybe right outside of baggage claim)?

A list of an airlines overnight hotels could be useful to nefarious characters...pretty easy to aquire airline manuals left in rooms while you go out to eat, along with Uniforms, ID badges, Keys, logbooks (containing phone numbers/gate codes/computer entries, etc.)

The information might be available if someone were looking on the internet, but why make it easy for them. For all we know, the guy looking for this was Mohammad Atta's room mate in flight school and was supposed to be the 21st Hijacker on 9/11....I know it's a stretch, but how do you really know.

Basic security doctrine is that the less info an enemy has, the harder it is for them to be effective. This is why discussing what time the crew is gonna meet for dinner or room numbers in public is a bad idea too.

That is exactly what I was thinking! Wow its like they think we are escorted by the secret service.

It certainly could be.

I'm not sure why, simply because I need the data for a project I'm working on, you and others seem to be jumping to the wrong conclusion that my intent is to publish this data on the internet.

That's not my intent...it's not part of this project and the data would be quite secure and never displayed outwardly to anyone (except me really, as the maintainer of the database).

Oh...well with a guarantee like that on an Internet message board, why would anyone doubt you. I'm sure a devout Muslim Fundamentalist seeking to use the information you are requesting would never claim it was for an innocent purpose just to get the information under false pretenses. I'm sure they would get on here and broadcast that they want to use the information to plan terrorist strikes against flight crews.

Right...exactly.

Wait.... you mean you're not?
