Just the next step in the TSA power and money grab, with the eventual goal of requiring all charter flights, regardless of aircraft size, to fly in and out of airports and FBOs with TSA approved screening equipment.

Since the bill submitted in the House went nowhere that would have mandated this, I wonder where the TSA got the authority to mandate this?

Thank you Mr. Niles. Can you site specifics regarding where JSX, Aero, XO and/or Bark Air need to tighten their security? Do you have a citation other than Private Jet Cards Comparison " . . . talked to someone from the industry"? How does “making the airport experience a lot less irritating” impact security? Does allowing passengers to arrive as little as 20 minutes before boarding create a challenge for security screening of 30 or less passengers? Please do tell.
