That post didn't say a word about MacBook Air. I think you meant this one:

The TSA Blog: MacBook Airs (Along with many other computers and gadgets) are Still Clear for Take Off

11' OK, 13" gotta come out.



BTW since when is a blog the vehicle for delivering what the TSA screens/removes, etc.? Too friendly.

Point is I have a 9inch netbook with no moving parts, I never take it out, and go months without hearing a word. If I am out of uniform it is slightly more likely to be requested to be taken out. DCA seems to love to request it be taken out, along with an attitude about how its a system wide policy I take it out. It does say on the TSA website that you dont have to take out netbooks with SSD.

My favorite the other day was I was going through TSA in a small Carolina city and some woman was yelling at everyone to put the bags in wheels up, and that its a system wide policy that it must be done that way. Must be their way of confusing the bag guys.
OK, mine was a 100% attempt at humor given the percentages used so I'm about 93% sure you missed that.
