The TSA still plans a nationwide rollout for CrewPass, a program that clears pilots through security faster. It's currently being tested in Baltimore, Pittsburgh and Columbia, S.C.

Is the TSA now going to pay for CrewPASS? The airlines were the ones that were going to have to foot the bill for that. As for the tests being done in BWI, PIT and CAE, that's been going on for years.

Are you KIDDING? Why are passengers the only ones being targeted here?

I think SATTSO is cryptically referring to ground-based airline employees.
