The TSA has released its Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) entitled Large Aircraft Security Program (LASP). AOPA members have made it clear in a survey and in comments to the Association that they are concerned by the attempt to make GA aircraft over 12,500 pounds flown under Part 91 comply with the same security requirements as commercial carriers. This proposal includes a number of initiatives: flight crew member criminal history record checks, watch list matching of passengers, checking passengers and baggage for dangerous weapons and biennial third party audits of each aircraft operator. In summary, the proposed rule represents an unprecedented intrusion on general aviation because it would apply commercial standards to GA operations. AOPA also is concerned about the proposal because the TSA has provided no justification for setting the aircraft weight requirement at 12,500 pounds. The Association fears it could expand to all sizes of GA aircraft. Equally alarming is a requirement that aircraft operators use and pay for third -party auditors to perform. a government function. The TSA will be holding a series of public meetings to hear how the proposed rule will impact GA. The meetings - which will begin at 9 a.m. local time (with registration starting at 8 a.m.) - will be held at the following locations: Burbank, Calif., Jan. 23, 2009: Burbank Airport Marriot Hotel & Convention Center, 2500 North Hollywood Way; Houston, Texas, Jan. 28, 2009: Hilton Houston Hotel -North Greenspoint Conference Center, 12400 Greenspoint Drive. Hearings have already been conducted in White Plains, Atlanta and Chicago. Each speaker- will be allowed three minutes to explain to TSA the impact of this rule. A representative from AOPA will be attending each meeting to discuss this proposal with members. Your voice can make a difference, show up and explain to TSA just how the proposed LASP will impact your flying., If you cannot attend, it is still important that you make your voice heard by submitting comments to the official docket.
