Sounds like a lot of federalized security screeners to me!

Actually you might be able to eliminate, or at least reduce, the screening. The planes are small so they don't have the destructive capability of the jumbo jets if hijacked and crashed. And with only a few passengers the planes aren't a big target for terrorists. Yes, Pali-style suicide bombers could keep some level of security in place, but the inanity of prohibiting nail clippers would be past.

There is not much security in the private aviation world. I know a guy who rented a private plane last November. He wanted to pick it up on a Friday after work. The Owner said he wouldn't be there, but not to worry, he'd leave the keys in the ignition.
