You have airport workers, some of which are screened and some who aren't.
You have aircrew which isn't screened.

If you think so, I disagree.

As I said before, we are not required to screen flight crew. Many think we are required, even many who work for SAT. But certain arraignments can and sometimes are made so that they avoid screenig.
