[QUOTE=skyknight;208766]'Uniformed Crew Member' does not mean crewmember in uniform. Your company ID is all the proof you need to show you are a uniformed crew member. Perhaps if TSA hired people who could read, speak and understand english the same way we are required to, we wouldn't still have this problem. 
Well said sir.
I had to take my shoes off in Dulles the other day.. i mean what is that?? I was in too much of a rush to put up any kind of fight.. where can we find our rights?
At my airport, info leaked that a TSA would try to board our plane and write a vio if succesful.. cant wait till he tries so I can call security- nowhere in the Colgan handbook do we have a copy of their badge or privilages.

You guys/gals can **** and moan, *****, scream, etc, all you want about "uniformed" and "air carrier"...
I will say that the TSA has helped standardize things since the days before 9/11. However, there are still little fiefdoms that interpret the rules differently. The fact is that regional security directors still have a lot of discretion over the policy- regardless of what the lawyers have written.
Officially, non-scheduled 135 air carriers are not exempt. Does that mean that every airport enforces this rule? No. But there are some that do. And the TSA has specifically issued a directive that defines "Air Carrier" differently than the FAA does.
Of course there's one way to solve all of your security issues... spend a week in beautiful Artesia!

It was included in the info ALPA passed out a while ago. Sorry that isn't much help. If you have the stomach for it you could try searching tsa or the e-cfr's. There is a link from the tsa website.
