Aero-News Quote of the Day

“I hope this opens a new era of reform for TSA operations, not only at Orlando Sanford but across nation. It's critical that TSA get out of the business of running a huge bureaucracy and human resources operation and refocus its attention on security, analyzing intelligence, and setting the highest risk-based security standards. TSA needs to focus on going after terrorists – not little old ladies, veterans and children.” Source: House Transportation Committee Chair John Mica, announcing that Orlando Sanford International Airport will be allowed to opt out of TSA screening.
