Airline pilots but not cabin crew???

Why don't we go all the way and exempt all licensed airplane pilots?

The sort of rank elitism displayed here should not, let us hope, sit  
well with the American public.

"The TSA memo proposes to minimize the number of passengers who must
be patted down at checkpoints. It also recommends that certain
categories of passengers be exempt from airport security screening,
such as members of Congress, airline pilots, Cabinet members, state
governors, federal judges, high-ranking military officers and people
with top-secret security clearances."
