No. It's a memo that I presume all facilities gave to their
controllers. It says that anybody that isn't a citizen that wants a
tour is to be referred to the office. The manager will contact the
FBI
and a quick background check will be done and then you get your tour.

Looks like anything that comes from TSA, standards are different
depending on who you talk to. Here in Seattle, I was told "no way"
period. It's such a shame that I can teach US citizens how to fly, but
I cannot go in to a TRACON. The same thing goes for a student who is
writing security code for a major software company, but he (a permanent
resident) cannot visit the TRACON.

At any rate, could you give me some names, some leads about the
organizers of this Operation Raincheck? I have been working with AOPA
about this issue and telling them about this memo could enable Seattle
area pilots to visit Seattle Approach / Center.
