What about EAA pilots who have been issued security badges at airports through the TSA? These are typically issued at air carrier (Part 139) airports. I take from your response that means I am all set; no background check needed. By the way... you typically have to update your airport security badge every year or two by filing a new application as TSA is not allowed to keep certain information beyond the initial check. They check for criminal, drug or firearm violations and citizenship, but do not check financial or employment records and other information that EAA allows AmericanChecked to gather and keep... How is it that EAA requires this information at all -- and do so perpetually?
