hello,
i want to apologize for posting in a thread that's a few months old. i am a member of another forum where that sort of thing is frowned upon except in cases where the new information is of particular relevance to the matter at hand. so i'll cross my fingers and hope that the moderators see this as valid and useful, or else they are free to move this to a new thread and i'll not harbor any ill-will.
i wanted to point out (please, don't think of this as self-serving since this is informational and not a commercial endeavor in any way) that i have been maintaining a whole section on my web site for some time now dedicated specifically to the process of flying with firearms...
i have given numerous lectures on the subject (video of some of them is linked on the above page) and i even maintain a number of traveler accounts, detailing how they were treated and what they encountered.
i rate every major air carrier with a simple, school-style letter grade in recognition of both their policies concerning firearms as well as how they've treated people in the past when passengers have had firearms to check.
i hope that this resource will help prepare people for their first time flying with guns and also help guide their ticket purchasing decisions in a way that lessens their headaches at the airport and allows them to vote with their wallets when it comes to airlines whose policies leave a lot to be desired.
this is my first main post (outside the "hi, i'm new" forum) and i look forward to being a part of this online community if i complete my potential move to the Blue Hen State.
