    Re: Armed Pilots Discouraged

    This article is nothing more than speculation on 2 million in training funds being pulled from the program. Nowhere does it say the program is ending, nor do we know if 2M is all or just part of the training. Misleading journalism if you ask me...

        Not happening according to an e-mail ALPA just put out. In part;



        In stark contrast to an op-ed article in today’s edition (March 17, 2009) of the Washington Times, that claims “…President Obama is quietly ending the federal firearms program, risking public safety on airlines in the name of an anti-gun ideology,” TSA officials reassured ALPA they are committed to the FFDO program and have plans for its expansion.
        TSA’s leadership immediately contacted ALPA and requested a meeting to discuss this news report. ALPA representatives met with TSA executives this afternoon and were told that TSA embraces the FFDO program, that there are no plans to reduce or restrict its growth, and that the agency fully intends to grow and expand the program.

              Even worse is that a surprinzing number of people ARE NOT scare of our new Messiah.
