"She says she was embarrassed about it, felt...."

The solution is simple. Of course it depends on how serious "she" is about being a woman.

What's that Biblical quote?

If it offends the, pluck it out ???, something like that, anyway.

I think the TSA might try adjusting their frame rates a bit. Maybe turn AI traffic down a notch. Anyway my anomaly is in a state of yo and put up on the shelf with my old hard drives. ^-^

When I was 20 got shot by accident (the only time in my life I left a weapon loaded, the rule is no cartrige in the chamber until you fire) by an 8 year old, and the bullet ended in my lower spine, above the coxis & rubbing the spinal medula. Taking it out would put me in a wheel chair. So she is my faithfull companion since those days. Begining the 80's I had a bussines trip to USA and coming back, after buying an inmense LEGO & a bag of marbles for my kids, I was going through the San Antonio airport scaner, while my bagage was going through something like an X ray machine. An alarm went off: with the corner of my eye I saw 4 male officers unstraping their holders while they advanced towards me from every corner & fast. The female officer in front of me ordered that I open my bagage, started pulling things out like they were stinking, acording to her facial expresion, and said with relief: "OH!! Marbles..." at my kid's gift. I asked what she thougt they were & she answered: "Bullets". The 4 male officers restraped their holders while going back to their respective corners. I was not mistreated nor apologized, all was so fast & to the point.

Must have been my companion detected by the scaner... :think: just bought the marbles by impulse. How do you explain a bullet in your spine in a foreign country?? :shock:

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

The TSA responded to her complaint saying: "TSA takes all potential civil rights violations very seriously. We are looking into the situation now for further information."
Staff at the airport told her she could avoid problems in future by asking for a private screening.
Petosky ended her tweets by saying: "The only reason my story went national is because a lot of other people want these changes too."

Another "special case" that wants special privileges. WAAAA!! :snooty:
