several unrelated notes...

1. At SEA after the PIP noticed that AS flights from Victoria BC apparently aren't pre-cleared--they arrive at the S. Satellite.

2. I think at YOW pre-clearing only has started recently--I recall seeing AC planes at T5 in ORD from there 2 or so years ago.

3. I think that Shannon Ireland also pre-clears like the major Canada airports.

4. I got into a little trouble one time asking (strictly out of curiosity) whether the immigration inspector at YYZ was a US citizen. I wonder about that sometimes--could a resident alien block a citizen from returning to the USA?

or is it like at the supermarket when you have wine and the checker is 19 years old--they call over the citizen to say "you can't come in"
