Interesting take and thanks for providing data. I'd be interested to compare the cost of TSA to the cost of security for cargo aircraft on a per flight basis. I'm assuming that what's done for cargo aircraft is the bare minimum to meet the requirements for insuring the flights, which provides economic security.
