Thanks for the update Tom. This is somewhat concerning to me since I don't
see this as anything but another excuse to treat the glider community as
second class.


No, they are not picking on glider pilots. It is normal now (in USA,
the land of the free)for any airport that has scheduled airline
service to have a ramp area and terminal area that is restricted to
only screened scheduled airline passengers. I landed my airplane at
one airport, got gas, took a leak, and was nearly arrested because I
attempted to go out of the wrong door to get back to the airplane.
