Tnxs 'fs' for that informative post.
What bothers me a little is the way these testers go about the task & how they intend to handle any results that may prove positive on first contact. I would hate to think that these guys/gals doing the testing will feel as if they are school yard bullies & treat professional people like pilots engineers etc as if criminals or lower than them. NOBODY likes being subjected to 'big brother' tactics in any format but obviously if no one has anything to hide then it's hopefully just an inconvenience. We shall see no doubt.
As a side to all this I wonder why now? We have had testing available for some years now for rd users. I can't help but wonder what brought this on for pilots, engineers & other airside pro staff to be tested at random now, anybody care to shed some light on that?
