sure.. I think you would... but that would be buried in the aircraft maint
logs..
I don't think the thief pilot would know where to look...

also remember this is TSA... they do not know anything about aircraft..
maint requirements or paper work... look at the fiasco they just unleashed
with 49CFR1552

They are still writing waivers and interpretations on what they really meant
to cover.

Install hidden security switches to prevent unauthorized startup of
aircraft???? how could you hide a switch on an airplane wouldn't you need
a
337 and a description on the switch ware it's going to be placed?

The aircraft in the picture doesn't quite look like a Pawnee
to me. Is the picture flattened out a bit perhaps or is it
really some other model ?

Yes, the picture is stretched left to right. It is a Pawnee however. Maybe a
local glider club needed a tow plane? Naw, I don't think that is the case. I
wonder just how many other types of airplanes are stolen in Mexico a year?
Mac Pawnee pilot.

Of course they would, 'cause the FAA would require that you install a large red
placard telling you to turn it on before flight.

If a man gets into a fight 3,000 miles away from home, he *had* to have
been looking for it.

I guess they don't know anything about cutting the P-leads and hand
propping, either.

I really doubt that that's an issue on the Pawnee. Or most of the other aircraft with
which the TSA is concerned.

Yea. Of course, it's sometimes hard to tell which are the "aircraft with
which the TSA is concerned"

and immediately falls apart when some-one does a conversion onto that machine.
Remember the ground switch on the PA22 ??????
