Another victim of the WOD. How much power are we willing to give the government in order to stop people from smoking a doobie and eating Cheetos?

Feds Say: 'Pilots Have No Rights'
I think that they really mean that anyone with a job has no rights.

Because airplanes are under the jurisdiction of the FAA the pilots lose all 4th Ammendment rights according to the LEOs doing the training. Pathetic. Using this logic the Feds can.search almost anything without a warrant.

What they taught law enforcement officers and agents was that all aircraft can be detained since they all fall under the . . . authority of the FAA. Interesting.
I cannot locate the Article/Section of the U.S. Constitution which states that the 4th Amendment does not restrict the powers of the FAA.

Doesn’t sound legal to me. I wonder if they have tried to use any of what they found in court?
To: CodeToad
Most likely, the Feds are looking forward to the opportunity to confiscate an airplane.

Can’t hardly wait for tsa and dhs to start doing random stops and searches on the interstates. That should be a barrel of laughs. My wife looked at me real funny when I mentioned that to her. It’s comin’. Will we have to file trip plans kinda like flight plans in the future? Obtain and pay for permits for excess CO2 emissions for the trip?

Ah yes, the unbounded privileges of the War On Drugs.
Wouldn’t it be easier to call in a SWAT team to dispatch the annoying pilot?

Worse...
Because of sequestration, Oboingo and crew threatened EAA to pony up $450,000 for Controllers at Oshkosh...
EAA bent over.
It won't be the 1st time, they will continue to pay the vig, like the Resturant Owner in Goodfella's IMHO.
Dangerous president set here IMHO...

By what authority? If the FAA is a federal government agency, and the 4th Amendment specifically forbids the federal government from performing searches without a warrant, how is it that the FAA does not need a warrant? Even if there is a federal law stating that the FAA can do warrantless searches, federal laws do not trump the Constitution.

“The FAA the can search an aircraft. “
But only in relation to air worthiness, not for criminal investigation for violations of laws outside the FAR.

This would be like saying your house is connected to a street that is connected eventually to a federal highway so they can search your house.
