Based on the readings (BELOW) and any research you conducted, describe and discuss flight school security:

• In regard to what you know about TSA requirements, methods of protection, and security programs at flight schools, are there any gaps or deficiencies that could facilitate security threats using flight schools as a tool?
• Could terrorists today receive the same training they did before 9/11? Explain your answer. Formulate your responses from your course material and other resources.

Reference and cite your sources using the current APA format. Make your initial post as early in the week as possible so that others have time to reply.
