You could be on a secret government database or watch list for simply taking a picture on an airplane. Some federal air marshals say they're reporting your actions to meet a quota, even though some top officials deny it.
The air marshals, whose identities are being concealed, told 7NEWS that they're required to submit at least one report a month. If they don't, there's no raise, no bonus, no awards and no special assignments.

1. I wonder...

Since you can't check in advance to find out whether you're allowed to fly, would you be able to sue the government for the price of your ticket if they stop you from getting on a plane?

2. I'll tell my Wife

but I doubt it will do any good. She's a pathological tourist. Every few mniutes that camera rewinds.... I'm probably on their list because I told them that if I had known that it would come to this, I would have told them where they could stick that Ensign commision 30 years ago.
