Why GA is Dying

Parking lots are not sterile areas and guns are allowed,
even in the checked baggage on the airlines. I carried a
gun regularly in my flight bag on charter flights. Some of
my passengers did too, on part 91 flights. We also carried
hunters and target shooters on 135, and their unloaded guns
went in the airplane. If we had a nose baggage, they went
there, but in the King Air, it was all in the cabin.

Look for small 32 and 38 caliber revolvers and small auto
pistols, some are powerful enough and will fit in places you
would find handier than 40 miles away in a drawer.

You might look better in a pair of tight jeans and a man's
white shirt tied above the waist, but if the shirt is
bloused and tied below the waist and the jeans have a little
slack and you use a stiff belt, you can carry a small 45
automatic pistol just over the hip behind you and a spare
magazine on the other hip. Maybe you can't carry on the
airplane or into the workplace, but you can get a CCW in
Texas and carry to the pizza parlor or Circle K.

I dunno, we have the signs up in the parking lot and the building saying
cc is not permitted. Yeah, I can leave it unloaded, but what's the
point in that?

This is a large airport, btw, not a GA one. And a very large company.
They're kinda paranoid.

They probably offer a burial benefit.

They do. But only if I die overseas.

Do they bury you over there too?

Hehehehe.

No, they pay to repatriate the remains.

Good policy, deny the means to possibly save your life, but
be generous with the benefits after you're dead.

I guess we should drop this thread for now, seems we have
gotten far off aviation.

If it's not a 30.06 sign, it's not legal... Regardless of that, the
2nd Amendment says, "SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED", so **** 'em...

Back before Bush signed the CHL law, I carried a 12-gauge pistol grip
shotgun in my vehicle all the time... I also carried between my
vehicle and the apartment I was staying in while in Dallas... For some
reason, none of the gang banger punks wanted to bother me...
Intimidation through superior firepower, I guess...

It is.

With the required 1" letters? In English and Spanish?

If so, then for me at least, it boils down to whether there is a metal
detector / x-ray machine / guard searching packages... If not, then I
would probably carry anyway...

As much as some people like to think that Texas has liberal gun laws,
in fact, we don't... We are still left with a lot of laws due to the
oppression that resulted during Reconstruction after the War of
Northern Aggression... Slowly, we're throwing off this yoke of
oppression, but we're not quite there yet...
