[quote]Oh, I felt the wrath from on high of our forefathers in aviation.... Imagine Ernie Gann or Dave Behnke or the guys that muscled DC-6's around bowing for this type of humiliation! They got respect - because they commanded it, and accepted no less.<hr></blockquote>
Old Ernie must be rolling over in his grave. My dad was a Pan Am guy, a new hire in the "Clipper Skipper" days, and when we discuss this crap, he always says that those old timers would have told the feds to flake off........

Wait a minute, your a Dawg? I think all of you guys need to be strip/body cavity searched at every opportunity! I know all about you guys! <img src="smile.gif" border="0"> (Just kidding....I worked for DHL for a while prior to my current job!)

Why is that? We haven't had an FAA administrator that understands aviation since Hinson. Heck I think he was the only pilot in the bunch as well!
