"No Fly List" challenged in court.

In a suit that the government has been stalling on for  four years, plaintiffs (backed by the ACLU) are challenging the federal "no fly list."  They argue that there is a violation of due process as there is no procedure available for challenging being on the list.  Strikes me as being an obvious violation of due process.

    It's my understanding as a general aviator that it's up to the pilot in command as to whom or what he/she takes aboard their aircraft. This "captain of the ship" custom applies to private, commercial and military aviation. The only due process involved is the safety of flight. Therefore, the pilot gets to make the final call if any doubt exists

    Thanks for the post. The no-fly list is not compiled by pilots. The pilots do not enforce the no-fly ban.
