Another reason to fly GA...

flight has lost your luggage.

They must apply that selectively because that would put the BOS-LGA-DCA
shuttle out of business.

The fundamental problem with this is that you can't return the bag
because it was checked.

I thought about that, but many business travelers do not check luggage.
So I didn't believe that the luggage would have to be checked.

Dave Wartofsky, operator of Potomac Airfield (one of the DC-3) points

security on all the Hawaian airports they could have prevented the
Pearl Harbor attack.

There hasn't been a BOS-LGA-DCA shuttle in decades.

Sarcasm, perhaps?

I flew the USAir Shuttle from LGA to BOS routinely during 1998-99.

Additionally, I just checked the USAirways schedule and they still offer
what appear to be shuttle flights hourly from/to BOS, DCA, and LGA. The
USAirways shuttle is an Airbus 319, has been since the late 90s.

Obviously I'm missing some sort of inside joke.

Then, perhaps "TSA" could alternatively mean "Terminally Stupid
Attitudes".

your code. then you are free to blow up the plane.

note to TSA: pad down everybody with a deleted code.

It's good to see the British are now shooting first and asking questions
