As I continue my wandering through the TSA labyrinth, I have learned a few things.
First, when you file your “redress” you are given a “redress control number.” From what I’m reading, it appears that this number, if all things go well, will become my magical key to regain my flying rights. It appears that if they agree I am who I am, I won’t actually come off of their ineffectual list. Rather, I will provide my RCN to airlines when I book a ticket. They will then cross reference this RCN with the “this guys is a bastard” list and because I have a RCN, they’ll know I’m not a bastard.
In short, it looks like I have hope. The problem is that the only hope I have is placing my confidence in a federal bureaucracy!
