$100 to Fly Through the Airport - WSJ.com

The pre-9/11 airport security checks are perfectly adequate—at least as effective as all the theatrics that have mostly replaced it.  The offensive part is that only a small portion of the flying public is allowed to use it.

This, of course, opens another security vulnerability.  If a terrorist wanted to go through the supposedly more lax ‘Precheck’ security line at the airport, all he has to do is take the identity of someone who is cleared for Precheck.

Of course, that’s not a vulnerability for the airport; as I said, the new security checks don’t actually do anything.  It’s a security vulnerability for the people on the ‘Precheck’ list.
