That would be a good trick. How would you do it? Say you are in Mexico
at some airport which does not even have a phone, let alone Internet
access. Currently you can take off and call Customs as long as you give
Customs notice 60 minutes before crossing the border. Now, they want a
security screen of your passengers before you even take off? How do you
do that?

This is going to kill a lot of humanitarian programs in Mexico that
depend on volunteer pilots. The earlier Customs proposal was completely
unworkable, now this.

What kind of fantasy world to these people live in?

Last I looked, Alaska was part of the United States of America. How
come these guys want to screen flights from Alaska?

Did you miss the part where it mentioned Pt 135??

Pt 91/GA is going to have to use the same procedure/system that Pt 135
has been using for quite some time.

Great, if you have Internet access. But in Mexico a lot of airports do
not even have phones, let alone Internet access. What, does DHS think
that if it commands people to register over the Internet, that all the
necessary equipment will just suddenly appear in a flash of pink smoke?
