If you need to take your gun along on a scheduled airline, it is safe only when it is under your control. That means in your possession. If you are transporting a prisoner, you certainly aren't expected to do it unarmed. But you must now show the airline that you have completed a Flying While Armed course in addition to a letter from your chief. In 1995, the Federal Aviation Administration required a training course of all police officers who must fly while armed. There were no instructors qualified by FAA to teach it. OPA was conceived to provide such training expeditiously. FAA Rule 108 became law on 14 November 2001. The course has been updated to include rule changes made since the atrocity of Sept. 11, 2001.
