Denver. It begins with:

"By way of background, I served on the Working Group of the Aviation 
Security Advisory Committee (“ASAC”) and assisted the TSA in drafting 
the “Security Guidelines for General Aviation Airports”. I have managed 
GA airports for 25 years and at present, I manage one of the largest and 
busiest GA Reliever airports in the US. I have studied national and 
international security at the Air War College and
Harvard University and I am a published author on the subject of GA 
airport security. Finally, I served as the Principal Investigator for 
the only GA security research grant ever issued by the TSA, and I 
chaired two aviation security research projects on behalf of the 
National Academy of Sciences, Transportation Research Board. Therefore, 
I believe I am reasonably qualified to comment on the Notice of Proposed 
Rule Making (“NPRM”), Federal Register, TSA Docket 2008-0021, Large 
Aircraft Security Program, Other Aircraft Operator Security Program, and 
Airport Operator Program, dated October 30, 2008.

this proposed rule as follows:"
