Already done. I also contacted the heads of the Yankee Air Museum to enlighten them to this new proposal and request an official comment made to the TSA/gubmint.
I suggest other museums do the same.

My dear American friends, you have no idea how bad this proposed legislation makes you look outside of the good ol'US of A...

My gosh ! The world's most powerful nation is acting worst than the smallest most scared country there is...

What happenned to the USA, we, the rest of the world used to all admire and respect ????

Look around and wake-up ! You guys better take a hold on your precious democracy and get rid of these people running you because the famed Land of Liberty of yours is just a faded souvenir my friends.

This is sad indeed...

Has anyone ever even seen them catch a genuine terrorist? But they sure can make it hard to travel with toothpaste or suntan lotion or a Mother to travel with baby formula. And they are great with pink elephants though, I haven't seen a single pink pachyderm on a plane since TSA took over.

the lawyers took it all away from us

along with the unions the GOOD OLE BOY party system. Typical of any most powerful country we have a LOT of big sticks...but we just carry them we don't use them therefore the power slips away. Russia knows this thats why they are "rattling their sabers" all over the place right now. If i was in canada however I would be more afraid than being in the US as if we go down, you certainly go down. Im trying to find a place to go thats safe but I guess I also need to clean my weapons!

Keep this on topic....We all know what is going on here...

Our Government is reaching out to where they have no valid reason to reach. It has been going on for years and years...Step by step...talk to gun owners...it really started in 1968. We all know who was president then...We all know who is president now...Both parties have had their folks that are willing to use the power we gave them to make us do what they think is right for us. They are insulated from this kind of stuff...in their great city on the hill...

And by they I mean US....WE vote for US...WE have allowed this kind of stuff to happen.

Write your reps...vote...be active in the process....Let's do what we can to stop this ridiculous action....


Just don't be an AZZ about it here....

Now let's talk airplanes...

Welcome to the new USA, the USSA (United Socialist States of America), or the ObamaNation

and.. There is a surplus of postal workers, so this TSA job give them a place to go.

Oh dear, this sounds similar to the new EU regulations that came into force here in July, which put pay to passenger flights in types such as the DC-3, unless of course the operators went to great expense and complied with them. :roll:

It was discussed here on WIX:

Like these new EU regs, it seems to be a typically ill thought out piece of legislation, and will affect the operators of types it really shouldn't. :x

You reap what you sow, that's all this is.

I'm sure the Senator has quite a few issues higher on his list of priorites than this, and I severely doubt he would support this in any case.

Yeah, like raising taxes, growing government, and creating a nanny state.

And.. the latest grab for power by the TSA is precisely that.

Gents - some of us are already thoroughly sick of the US election miasma, and it's not even our election. Try and keep to the topic of the TSA issue, and park the pointless party politics please.

(Mod Edit Thank you)

I hope this kind of thing is meant to funny, because it sure 'aint serious. If it's serious, it shouldn't be here, on WIX, at all.

Please.
