Gustave, your point is well made, but unfortunately it only supports doing away with the regulations regarding flight schools. The point here is that these ARE the regulations, and they are not being enforced by TSA, just like they weren’t enforced by the INS before. The bloated government said that these regulations should be in place, whether you or I agree or not, then spent a LOT of taxpayer money getting more bloated, and now… things are no better than before 9/11.
Perhaps you sleep well at night because you accurately understand the true lack of risk here with regards to pilot training, but what about all those other risks, the real ones, that we depend on the inept TSA to mitigate? If they can’t save us from this made up risk, what about the truly dangerous stuff?
