Same here.
Although, I don't mind them getting screened by an ADASP team at commercial airports because technically... they are entering the AOA of the airport which says people entering are subject to screening.
Especially because I read reports every once in a while of flight students or private plane operators flying into a major airport, parking their plane and then are discovered a few hours later walking about on the AOA were they shouldn't be.
Now if only we had larger ADASP teams.
