Dear Freightdogs from the US,
is it true that a group of US Freight Pilots is sueing TSA etc..to allow standy by passengers/friends/spouses back onto the freighters?
The 9/11 Hysteria has among many stupidities also produced a ban on freighters for any stbys/spouses etc..
(China is also prohibiting all stbys
). I can imagine that for UPS,Fedex etc pilots this is quite a drop in quality of life if you cannot take your friends and spouse along with you on trips. In Europe this is also causing great anger that we cannot take our ladys onto trips to the US and would gladly add our weight to such a lawsuit. Does anybody know more details?
