By Annie Jacobsen in category U.S. Homeland Security
NBC News reports that more than 100 Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) credentials are missing.
[Former commercial pilot] and aviation expert Denny Kelly says "the FAA badge of all the badges is probably the most dangerous of any other."
An NBC5 investigation reveals over the past 5 years, 112 FAA aviation inspector badges have been stolen or lost.
Denny Kelly says "with that badge you can get in the cockpit in flight."
