Security

NVpilot, as far as I know, none of them were in uniform, none had airside passes. They were all ticket holders who just happened to rent a simulator and practice how to fly it. They didn't even practice how to land the thing. Their instructor should have suspected something and made the alarm. No pilot working for a legitimate airline, in uniform, with a pass, should be treated as if he/she is a terrorist. Not after going through the mountain of checks to get the airside pass. Please don't give the public such wrong information. We should not have to pay the price for a country that allowed in so many ways, 9/11 to happen. You gave them visas, you trained them in Florida, you rented them a simulator to practice on. You were told that something was cooking and you chose to ignore it. Now we have to put up with all this crap because every one is so paranoid. I still say, boycott, boycott, boycott. Enough is enough. They can't operate without pilots, all it needs is balls on the part of the pilots.
