Being a pilot, I love to fly, but I haven't flown (commercially) since before 9-11. If they keep up with that nonsense I doubt I'll ever fly a commercial airline again.
I hate to fly now too, but how are people supposed to get from one part of the country to another in a short time? Driving is impossible sometimes, if the distance is great and the timeframe is short. This country is becoming a joke to the rest of the world.
