On the recordNovember 16, 2001
I just wanted to bring something to the attention of the chairman and the body that an engineer and pilot in my district suggested that we have a separate entrance for pilots and a solid bulkhead, doing away or reducing the need for security police on the plane, reducing the need to have threats of terrorists or hijackers. So I hope this is one of the areas that the Department will be looking into, and I thank the gentleman for yielding this time to me.
