I believe you mean TSA.. not GSA


Lady in front of me had one of those day-of-the-week plastic drug
containers but did not have her Rx [or copy of same] with her so that
the meds could be identified. She was taken to a room and I don't know
what happen from there! In effect, while a good many of the GA brethren
are generally free from any Rx meds for obvious FAA mandated reasons,
folks you travel with may have meds they require for any number of
things so make sure you have a copy of the Rx to show what those meds
are or, better still, use the Rx bottle they came in! Again, this is
"enhanced security."


This has always been true..


Finally...in the Philly hub...guy presented his photo drivers license ID
but it was expired. Bizzzzz! He argued the point rather vociferously to
the tune of 'what the $$#$ difference does that make..you can see it's
me...and assorted other comments...but the next thing I observed was a
veritable small army of ARMED folks making with the "This way, Sir..."
strong-arm thing. I didn't see the guy subsequent to his voiced
displeasure.

The rules do say "valid" ID.. an expired ID is not "Valid".. ask the next
cop that pulls you over and writes a ticket for an "expired" license, along
with the ticket for the reason he pulled you over.


Lately...and this very recently in the news, they are thinking of
prohibiting all cell phones in the cabin [the 'reasoning' [!] behind
this one escapes me] but will allow same to be transported in the
check-in baggage. This one, so I understand, is pending approval.


The questions on "cell phones" is because one of the recent terrorist
bombings in the "middle east"?? could have been IRAQ... was denoted by
calling the cell phone.. when it rang... KABoom!!
