SECURITY ALERT – 21 MAR 08

This is to remind all pilots to closely monitor the flight deck while boarding and debarking passengers; and to closely monitor any individual or individuals who are not cockpit-authorized while they are on the flight deck, even with permission, even when on the ground.  Please consider making it your policy to refuse cockpit access to all individuals who are not cockpit-authorized when on the ground.  If an individual does not have an airline, FAA, or law-enforcement ID in view, he or she is generally not cockpit-authorized.
