A perspective on security
I follow the TSA discussion with great interest and firmly believe that the actions of the TSA are unconstitutional. Having said that, here is a point I would like to bring up.
For the last 10+ years, all my flights have been private/charter. In summary, your stuff gets loaded on the plane, you board the plane, and off you go. It takes the better part of 2 minutes from arriving at the terminal.
No carry-on pilfering, no TSA handjobs.
As such, the argument that you got to give up your 1/2 inch serrated paper knives or bring grandma for a proper rub-down because we attempt to keep terrorists from taking over big planes 9-11 style is just ridiculous since I can charter any size aircraft at a moment's notice.
