Since 1995 I have travelled by air often on behalf of the National Disaster Medical System. In addition to personal baggage and survival gear, I am frequently instructed to tote along a cache of communications equipment destined for some type of Federal disaster situation. We generally fly on commercial airlines when they fit the need. I can tell you far more stories about interesting encounters and inconsistencies with airport security before TSA than I can since TSA. Perhaps it is because I am more careful with what I try to get away with in the post 9/11 world. Federal credentials and emergency travel orders usually get the airline folks to cut me some slack. But take my word, they do not impress the TSA.
