while i agree w/most of what is proposed, i abslutely do not agree with "special/limitted/or no screening" for people of status and/or flight crews. sorry but where the intent is good, one just needs to look back to a psa crash about 25 years ago casued by a very disgruntled employee who (sop back then) was allowed to pass thru a "special" (which eqatues to non-security check/wtmd) line without any type of scan. for those that don't remember, he brought a loaded handgun on board, shot the cockpit crew and the plane crashed. as a result of that, all airline/airport personnel had to pass thru security just like pax. that part needs to stay in place, imho.
