This is the most misleading thread I've ever seen. Read through the fucking proposal before you make a fool of yourself.

The proposal is simply saying that aircraft will have to submit their passenger manifest 60 minutes prior to flight instead of the 15 minutes that it is currently set at. There is some other minor stuff in there about what is the definition of a departure (the scheduled time or the actual time). This doesn't change anything at all as them checking manifests has been protocal for years. This just extends the time so that they don't have to divert a flight in mid-air if they come across a no-fly lister.

Seriously guys, I'm against big government and big brother, but shit like this makes that cause look like it's run by a bunch of crackheads.
