They have already used small boats and they are a much more effective weapon
than a C150 (USS COLE).

If the nation is going to start securing 100 horsepower aircraft
against terrorists, it should first find ways to prevent cars and
trucks being used for terrorist purposes.


But people don't think that will happen, so they're not impacted.


If we question the TSA's failure to address automobile and truck
security, perhaps they'll be forced to issue a position statement on
that subject that could be applied to GA aircraft.

AOPA should team up with boating orgranizations. Start pointing out
that if GA is locked down because of 9/11, then if a small boat is used
next for terrorism, boating might get hit too. There would be a much
larger outcry from the public over boat restrictions than we'll get
from pilots over airplanes.

That seems like an excellent suggestion.
