I will continue to update my blog as more comes out.<\/p>\n<p>The Transportation Security Administration&#8217;s (TSA) new directive, SD-8G, became effective June 1, 2009.  It requires transient pilots flying into commercial-service airports to remain close to their aircraft, leaving it only to walk to and from the fixed-base operator, service provider, or airport exit.  Hard to believe, but this is a relaxation of the initial version which would have required those same pilots to undergo a background check and receive a security badge in order to have unescorted access to their airports.<\/p>\n<p>The Michigan airports on the list (<a href=\"http:\/\/eaa.org\/news\/2009\/2009-06-09_tsa_airportlist.pdf\">http:\/\/eaa.org\/news\/2009\/2009-06-09_tsa_airportlist.pdf<\/a>) are listed below.  Needless to say, there are a few that I find very surprising, as I have flown to them and cannot figure out why they would be on the list.  Keep the list in mind when you plan your next flight to any of these airports &#8211; you do not want to find yourself on the wrong end of any enforcement action.
