Lets read carefully now
After a comprehensive review, AOPA is raising concerns that the Transportation Security Administration's "alien training" rule .MAY hit every U.S. pilot, flight instructor, and flight school. Unless TSA clarifies that U.S. citizens are exempt, AOPA believes the rule could be interpreted to mean that, starting next month, they would not be able to complete flight training — including flight reviews — without first going through some type of TSA check

the last paragraph sums it all up....
TSA is requiring all flight instructors and flight schools to register through their local flight standards district office (FSDO). But TSA apparently hasn't yet coordinated that with the FAA.
"We don't think TSA appreciates the enormity of that task, particularly with the very short time frame," said Boyer. "There are more than 86,000 flight instructors in the U.S."
Instructors and schools also have to undergo TSA-approved recurrent "security awareness" training and maintain documentation of that training. And all required documentation is subject to TSA audit. (See "TSA issues alien training rule.")
"We'll continue to work with TSA to ensure that the rule does not apply to U.S. citizens," said Boyer.
Shall we place bets that it doesnt come into effect in its current form????
