It appears your stance on this matter seems to be progressing in a strange manner. So your stating that you have armed yourself and lay in wait for someone to ask for an ID, is this correct?
I'm hoping that your training as a TSA screener (and now as a behavior detection whatever) at least had some legal reference as limits of authority and force. Or is it just make it up as you go along as your brethren in MLB, BNA, BDL, etc are doing. By the way have you read FAR 61.3 (L)? It seems like if I am mowing my front lawn (not very aviation related) I still must have my pilot credentials and government photo ID on me. That one I have not figured out yet. So back to the question, how does your Federal Security Director (not the one at MLB) want to find out the limits of search (and apparently detainment) of TSA screeners on airport operating areas? |
How you gonna stop mission creep when the entire mission is controlled and manned by creeps?

Nope. Presenting my ID (and pilot certificates under FAR 61.3 (L)) to an authorized TSA representative is not the issue. A Federal Security Director in Melbourne (MLB) saying his TSA screeners can detain someone is what I can't seem to find the rules for.

TSA Changes Restrictions On Transient Pilots AvWeb.com 6-1-09 The TSA has enacted a new security directive (SD-8G) that means transient pilots flying into airports with commercial service will not need an airport badge or background check as previously required. The directive takes effect June 1 and instead requires pilots to "remain close to their aircraft" leaving it only for trips to and from the FBO or airport exit, according to AOPA. The TSA is expected to provide future guidance regarding self-fueling and emergencies. The new rules target transient pilots -- those pilots based at commercial-use airports who lease space or maintain a presence will still need to go through procedures and acquire a valid badge if they intend to roam the airport without an escort. Airports looking to avoid the badging will need to approve an alternative like an escort program to remain within the TSA's guidelines. The complication now appears to be what the TSA defines as an airport that offers commercial service and the fact that it hasn't yet released a list. |
When will those in charge (whoever they might be) wake up and realize that there is a rogue agency setting up shop in the homeland? One that recognizes no laws, no constitution, and no boundaries on their power?
Washington? We have a problem. |
