    TSA Snafu Damages Nine Planes at O'Hare Field

    August 19, 2008

    Nine American Eagle airplanes were grounded Tuesday after a TSA inspector, conducting an overnight security check, used sensitive instrument probes to climb onto the parked aircraft at Chicago's O'Hare Airport, aviation sources tell ABCNews.com.

    A TSA official confirmed the incident. 

    Full story at ABC news.

    It's a little disturbing that the inspector in question is tasked with keeping aircraft and their passnegers safe....

     It now seems that since the Inspector was able to enter some of the aircraft American Eagle could actually be facing a fine over it.
