The TAT is just where they hung their bag full of confiscated material, 40s of refreshment, bonus checks for staying on the job 3 weeks in a row and end of the day donuts/bagels/etc while they did an inspection looking for a way in..... No way anyone did much scalin'.

Learning= a change of behavior as a result of experience. Still, I didn't make the same mistake 9 times and not realize it. I am not perfect, but I am making progress!!!

The guys on the Eagle board have been supposedly have been trying to get the media informed over this I'll post your email over there.
So on another note, if i'd have to guess why these guys broke pitot tubes. I'm guessing they couldn't access the aircraft through jetbridge so they decided to try from the ramp using the pitot tubes as something to try to climb up on the plane.

Wonder when ppl will get fed up with this and you know damn good and well the higher ups at the TSA know whats going on and continue to ignore it .

Maybe it's time they got a uniformed nation wide policy and procedure thing going and one that prevents them from out right law breaking as they did at ORD.
