Meanwhile my Alaska Air + pre-check experience was just fine both DEN-SEA and SEA-DEN. Luck of the draw, although I guess avoiding Southwest and Frontier and the like in general helps.

don't forget the fork tailed doctor killer yo

whoa that's what those are called!

There's a wrecked one in the woods behind my house (mid 80s crash I'm told), and about 5 years ago I watched one crash right in front of me leaving the little municipal airport in truckee. I know that fuselage :rofl:

edit: actually the one I saw was a LYCOMING. Similar styling to my untrained self
