Tsa, What A Bunch Of Bs!

[exeagle]

Same thing happened to me 813 in DFW. Guy had a chip on his shoulder I guess. Even showed him my aoa badge!

Hi!

I basically haven't had a problem with TSA. Sometimes in small airports they're not quite sure what to do with jumpseaters, but when they learn they're OK.

There is a new shoe inspection machine they are testing. It is built into the floor, and checks your shoes as you walk over it, so no more taking off your shoes if the airport has that machine. I don't know about any schedule to have it installed, and don't know how expensive it is-It may go only to large airports if it's expensive.

Well it sure sounds like I am not the only one that can't stand TSA. Thanks for the info

...noticably stick their face about one foot from you and look in your eyes.

Whoa... there's gotta be a great comeback for that one!

How about a nice smelly belch..

If you are in uniform, the TSA cannot make you take off your shoes. If you are out of uniform, even if you get through the medal detector with you shoes on, they can still select you for an additional screening. There is a little sign that explains this at the DFW check point.

Excellent and ironically humorous idea... I'll start practicing my belches on command.

If you do request a private screening, be sure to have a fellow crew member present if possible.

better yet.. drop some serious a@@ as you walk away from being molested or if you really wanna have some fun while your being screened... bring on the bean burritos

N813CA,

Happened to me at LAX. Guy told me to take off my shoes, I said no thanks. Walked through, no beep and got a secondary screening.

Haven't we as pilots had the same background checks as the freaking TSA?

Evidently not!!!!!!!!!!!



Hired in hurry: In Atlanta, 66 screeners are fired after belated background checks

Don't forget the nice steady exhale following the belch.... all for maximum effect of course.

...And belching, while simultaneously floating an air biscuit, would be the ultimate show of gratitude.
