Use a different bag for weapons, never the one you take to work. The cost of a second bag is trivial compared to your career.
That's so obvious that, yes, this guy is an idiot.

Yes, epic stupidity. Good to know nobody here has ever made a mistake.

And like many other things, ALL that's disclosed thus far is what the media has released, so who REALLY KNOWS?
But if it' true that it wasn't DAY 1, said individual started earlier, etc etc etc, then the premise of "made a mistake" would be a tough sell on the accountability/forgiven front.
JUST LIKE THE UAL CA. It's not about the mistake, it's how one handles said mistake THAT MATTERS.

Good work on being statistically exceptional KC135.
And yes, a pilot getting caught bringing a gun through security is going to marginally take away from the respect given to all of us, not to mention contributing to the likelihood of all of us losing expedited security, which is the more irritating part to me. Especially when, unlike other mistakes, this is such an unforced error.
