I know
law dawg says he's an LEO for TSA but isn't a FAM. Could possibly be someone from the IG's office. If that's the case and it's from TSA's IG office, things are worse inside the agency than I thought.
ROTFLU.
A LEO for the TSA, but not a FAM. Hmmm.
True, could be someone from the IG's office. You're right, if it's from the TSA's IG office, things inside the agency are not good....
// OT - but rant about FAMs taking premium F seats: A friend of mine recently flew HNL-LAX in FC (paid FC, FWIW. A route I also fly in paid FC). Sitting next to him, a FAM occupying a F seat on one of AA's 767-300s with the new NG business/first class seating sleeper seats.
Despite being in a NG sleeper seat, the FAM never once even reclined his seat; didn't drink, didn't sleep, played with his PDA and read a book, and apparently stuck out like a sore thumb.
To not even recline a sleeper seat just a little bit for comfort is odd. I'm guessing it probably would have exposed a firearm if he reclined it a bit or tried to go into a Z position. Keep in mind this is also an afternoon flight that arrives late at night, just in time for the redeye bank of connections.
I wouldn't consider HNL-LAX a high yield route, but it is a route where people will pay for First Class on carriers that offer premium first seating and service. I pay F when I fly the route in order to have the premium first class seating; whats the point of buying an F ticket (or paying for an upgrade with $$ or miles) to get a premium F sleeper seat and keep it in the full upright and locked position for 5 hours? // rant off
