Bummer, they should have thrown the book at him.

You mean the FAA should have fined him? Given the questionable
security policy in effect, a fine may have caused him to fund a more
serious legal attack on the entire security implementation. I doubt
the current regime would have relished that.

At least Sheaffer will presumably have to pass written and practical
examinations before he flies again. If he is able to find a DE
willing to sign him off, he'll probably be sharp enough for us to
comfortably share the skies with. From what I've seen/read, he seems
of average intelligence, and lacked recent flight experience for
several years.

Of course, despite its alleged conferring of wisdom, age also takes
its toll.
