Default 27 Deemed As Threats Hold FAA Licenses

Looks like anybody can get a license. I'm gonna go get mine.

From The New York Times:

The Transportation Security Administration cannot determine the real identity of thousands of the people to whom the Federal Aviation Administration has issued licenses as pilots and aircraft mechanics, but has located an additional 27 who should not have held them because of terrorist connections, according to an internal report by the Department of Homeland Security.
