The OP asked:

I answered:
... will get you arrested more than likely. There are 2 ID checks between the main airport doors and the aircraft, failing at either will get the local police called.
To which you state:

Which of course has nothing to do with my answer to the OP’s question.
And the second question in the thread directed to me is:

For which another poster provides the answer:

But for which I provide:
49 C.F.R. § 1540.107 Submission to screening and inspection.
No individual may enter a sterile area or board an aircraft without submitting to the screening and inspection of his or her person and accessible property in accordance with the procedures being applied to control access to that area or aircraft under this subchapter.

When another poster jumps in with:

Which is again off topic of the original post and something for which I did not provide any information nor was asked about.
With which another poster replies:

49 C.F.R. §1540.107(a) requires that no individual may enter a sterile area or board an aircraft without submitting to the screening and inspection of his or her person and accessible property. So what does that entail? 49 C.F.R. §1540.5 defines "screening function" as "the inspection of individuals and property for weapons, explosives, and incendiaries." No TDC ID requirements here. Care to try again?
But you missed 49 C.F.R. 1540.107 Sub-part B (c) which states:
“An individual may not enter a sterile area or board an aircraft if the individual does not present a verifying identity document as defined in §1560.3 of this chapter, when requested for purposes of watch list matching under §1560.105(c), unless otherwise authorized by TSA on a case-by-case basis.”
Which is current as of 9/26/2012.

Good enough? And I have never said I practice law, only that I can read it and understand what I read. Better than some here that's for sure.
