I quit flying about 5 years ago after averaging 50k+ miles per year flying and almost a million mile flyer. The effectiveness of TSA in what it supposedly does is a pathetic at best and they continues to get worse and more ridiculous.
If government ever reduces the the TSA by 90% and starts profiling for the actual problem I may start again.
I could barely stand flying before 911 as it was quite uncomfortable to cram my 6 foot, 200 pound frame into those ridiculous kindergarten seats on the plane. TSA was the tipping point. I have flown exactly ONCE in the interval. Now, if it ain’t drivable I don’t go.
