More Anti GA hysteria

The key to the story is in this last line:

"Funding for the study came from many sources, including the private
transportation industry, which has worked with the center on other
research."

This has nothing, nothing, to do with terrorism and security.

Sounds just like the "independent" study Microsoft funded which found Linux
to be 10 times as expensive as Windows.

"'The no-fly zones over these stadiums are loosely enforced," said
Anderson."

Oooo-kay, that's a good indication of this so-called "Center's"
credibility.

The *******s are still beating the drum! It is obvious to me that
someone in TSA has a hardon for GA and doesn't care what it costs or
what other impacts it has on us. It s probably the same person or group
that came up with TFRs and the DC ADIZ.

Maybe so, but it's not obvious from this. What we seem to have here is a staff writer
for a local paper who writes an inflammatory article quoting a couple of bozos from a
DC organization that nobody's heard of and which is apparently not connected with the
government. The only statements from government people are individuals who simply
state that GA security hasn't changed much; none of the government workers even imply
that GA security needs to change.

Seems to me that the person with "a hardon for GA" is named Karen Schaler and works
for the Globe.

SNIP!

Nope, Schaler works for Channel 5, KPHO, in Phoenix, AZ. She
freelances stuff like this around the country. (Behind her Globe byline it
says coorespondent, not staff writer.) You can send her an email at:

kschaler @kpho.com

In addition to Ms Schaler, I'm going to Cc my message to:

baron @globe.com, the editor, and
hdonovan @globe.com , the executive editor, and
rgilman @globe.com , the publisher.

The Center for Strategic and International Studies
http://www.csis.org/ now says:

WASHINGTON, Aug. 26, 2004---An article in the August 26, 2004,
edition of the Boston Globe that suggests that the Center for
Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) is scheduled to release
soon a report on aviation security that has reached conclusions
regarding the general aviation industry is incorrect. ...

I love it! I can't find a plane that will carry my 240lb frame and my 4
family members without being over gross. They're worried that someone will
be able to pack enough into a Skyhawk to do damage from the middle of a
football stadium!??!?!?!?!

I'm *MUCH* more concerned about the gasoline trucks running up and down the
road than I am ANY airplane. Why can't these people think outside of what
has already happened? Lets see, they got us last time with an airplane, so
they're always gonna use airplanes! right?! Morons.

Yeh, and at the sports stadium you could also contaminate the hot dogs and
soda machines with botulism and ensure mass destruction that way too. What a
load of S**t.
