I am a Usairways pilot with hip replacements. I am unable to successfully pass through a metal detector. For approx. 5 years I have been questioned, wanded and patted down every morning each day I report for work. Ive asked for help with a solution, I’ve been through all the company and union channels to no avail. Approx. 1 year ago, I encountered something new called a groin check. This is where they run the back of their hands down your fly from top to bottom 1 inch to eother side. I said I would allow this if they dont touch my stuff. The screener accused me of being a “homophobe” and said he cant guarantee he wont touch me in this area. I said then I can’t go through the check. I called the airline for direction and they agreed to assist me in finding a solution if I would JUST take the flight out. I allowed him his groin check and was so humiliated and enraged that I was pretty much useless in the cockpit, I was self absorbed. Fortunately my Captain could see this and just picked up my duties also and never said a word. I called the union about this and they informed me that I NEVER have to let someone touch me there, that that is wrong. They also reminded me of my obligation to remain fit for duty in our flight ops manual as well as federal aviation regulations and should I find myself in a similar situation again, dont fly. Well, I noticed that this groin check kept popping up more and more often until I forced myself to accept it and block it out. [i.e. go to work on the flight deck of an airplane full of passengers -ed.]

Of course they are “getting off on it.” It is work they would not do unless they were. Who do you suppose applies for these jobs? I have wondered if people are promised that their records will be cleared if they take the job. This whole thing may be a reward to a certain class of loyal Democrat voters and it might just keep some of them “off the streets.”
“The guy who said, “I allowed him his groin check” should get a medal?”
No, the guy who put his name rank and airline on the internet for the whole world to see should get a medal.
“YOUR” ===> “YOU’RE”
If this is not an unreasonable search, nothing is.
Remember when the school teacher stood up and read her letter to the governor aloud to the crowd? She was complaining about the appointment of Bart (Clevon Little) as sheriff. It went something like this....
“....Please remove him at once! The very fact that you could appoint this man only goes to show that YOU are the leading a$$hole in the state!” Applies to alot of the present day RAT governors....
That is a ringtone on my son's cell phone, rings that way when my wife calls him.
Or maybe he has changed it.
He's a Boy Scout leader, and recently was at a regional council meeting when my wife called him.....
YOU’RE
not
YOUR.
Try the T-shirt again?
The “NO FLY LIST” should work BOTH ways!!!!

I, like tens of thousands of older folks, have an artificial hip and have been wanded and patted down every time I fly. I’m tired of that and will not submit to these new invasions of privacy in the name of political correctness—not enhanced security. This is a warning to the airlines: you better fix this quickly as you will be losing thousands of traveling retirees (like myself) as passengers. I AM part of your target, high margin market. My wife and I fly first/business class, often internationally on leisure and business. Fix it or we don’t fly. Period.
Just the point I was wondering about...Im trying to figure out how to fly w my 15yr old daughter this year.
I dont think I want my daughters 1st experiances to involve the airport... or gov. employees.
well...
How do I know the tsa lady isnt ... orientationally disfunctional?...
I dont even want her to see Free Americans treated this way.
We may have to stay here...
lol
