"We are quite
pleased with the outcome. The 'guilty until proven innocent'
attitude toward U.S. pilots that was embodied in the regulations,
and which the government has now been forced to abandon, is simply
unacceptable. Guaranteeing due process under the law is a
cornerstone of our country's legal system."

TSA regulations that had been dubbed the "Pilot Insecurity Rules,"
and which a judge has now declared unenforceable.
