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.

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?

Most likely, the Feds are looking forward to the opportunity to confiscate an airplane.

The FAA the can search an aircraft. Everyone else needs a warrant.

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...

I never experienced a ramp check. But, if this had happened to me, that's all they would get: my logbook, registration, and pilot's license.

No law enforcement officer would be searching my airplane, home, or vehicle without a warrant. If they don't have one and forcibly do so without my permission, my lawyer will make their life a living hell.

I'll let them explain it to a judge, and when he slaps them down, I'll be able to retire in style.

1st time I ever flew a plane I went to Indiantown Airport where in the “pilots lounge” there was a poster stating the 10 biggest LIES you’ll ever hear in Aviation.

It’s been a long time, but I remember the Coast Guard asserting that they had the right to board and search any vessel in the navigable waters of the U.S. at any time, day or night, without warrant or consent.

My copy of the Constitution says nothing about allowing the Feds to run an Aviation Administration of any stripe.

Privatize it and run it like an IEEE consortium.

This jackbooted bullshite needs to end. May as well start here.
