I was wrong when I stated earlier (on this thread or another one, not sure) that the acceptable ID list was going to be better. It is not really any different, the only difference that is better is that IDs that are less than 12 months expired are acceptable. There should be less confusion as to what is acceptable, because the list is smaller. And yes, BDO's or STSO's now have to get involved when someone doesn't have an ID. Though ID is still not required to fly, they are making it more difficult to fly without ID.
