Pilot Punished for Showing TSA Security Flaws
« on: December 23, 2010, 10:07:01 AM »
Probably need more info, but on the face of it, they're coming down awfully hard on this guy for pointing out security holes. Everyone from TSA to the local Sheriff, who pulled his CCW.

He may have been in violation of non-disclosure with TSA (if he indeed signed any such thing), but I can't figure out how that involves the local sheriff and the pilot's state CCW, or requires 6 person teams to show up at his door.

I like the reader comment wondering if the pilot would have been in as much trouble if he used that new iPhone app instead of YouTube.

I, for one, approve of our new groping overlords.
