Pilot claims no blame in July crash

Maybe THEY can post a TSA agent or a US Marshall at every
airport to check for ID, drugs, certificates, "Your papers,
please NOW"

After the computer check, logbook check and drug/alcohol
screening you get to fly. It would make aviation "safer"
and the user fees would pay for the SERVICE.

Some Congressman proposed that before every take-off the TSA
would have to approve every flight and that would include
the rancher in Wyoming checking his fences and cattle with a
J3 Cub. Every time he landed, he'd have to get another TSA
approval, luckily that was stopped [nasty AOPA lobbied it
dead] but the evil forces in government will try anything.
