I watched some cretin on a TV news show screeching about how private pilots were allowed to board their own aircraft without being cleared through security..."Who checks these people? No one! They can board the aircraft with anything!" What this idiot expected I don't know...that they would hijack themselves? The kid on that aircraft killed himself. He wasn't the first and he won't be the last and all the screening in the world won't stop it from happening again. Unfortunately.
