Last week, the TSA appointed Juan Barnes as a security liaison to GA encouraged the general public to e-mail him their concerns. So we put the question to AVweb readers: What do you have to say about the TSA's current policies and practices?

At the other end of the spectrum, only three readers (!) thought there were significant risks posed by GA and that the TSA should be doing more make America's skies safe.
