Letter: Bolster security at all airports

In response to the Jan. 9 editorial on aviation concerns:

One would have assumed that the safety measures at smaller airports would have already been stepped up in the wake of Sept. 11. Given the details of the attackers' flight-school training and the easy access to flight simulators and other flight-training documents, one would think that smaller airports and training facilities might be a reasonable breeding ground for further terrorist activities.

If they are truly worried about the safety of the American people, it would seem to me that the federal government would take whatever steps necessary to assure that our safety measures are adequate in all airports, regardless of size.
