Quote:
Analysts at the RFU were already swamped with intelligence warnings about possible attacks elsewhere in the world. "There are 2,000 flight schools around America and 200,000 students," said one official. "The bureau just didn't have the manpower to do something on this scale."

One obvious shortcut - looking only at flight-school students from the Middle East - was rejected. It would breach the FBI's own procedures to prevent racial discrimination. "There are rules to be followed strictly or we lay ourselves open to complaint and to lawsuits," said a former agent. "We can't get involved in what would amount to racial profiling."
