Airport security is a mess and needs
reform badly. My point was simply that having it is necessary.


Maybe all airports should emulate the kind of security they have at
AirVenture Oshkosh. ;-)



I really miss the "old days".

I remember one night at OSH many years ago with Steve Whitman and a whole
gang of us sitting around under the wing of my airplane eating hot dogs;
drinking cold beer; and telling old war stories. No gates; no cops; no
security; only good fellowship and the reflection of happy faces from the
fire a few yards down the line in an empty tiedown spot......YES!!!!!!!!
There actually WAS an empty tiedown spot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


No way. I was actually believing your story until you got to the empty
tiedown statement... :-)
