FLY AMERICA ACT - RULES AND REGULATIONS
In order to help clarify the basic rules and regulations of the Fly America Act, we have published this brochure to assist those people traveling on international trips being paid for by the U.S. Government. Most of this information is taken directly from Section 301-3.6 of the Federal Travel Regulations as amended on February 23, 1990 and effective on March 23, 1990.
1. Definitions
4. Gateway Airport in the United States - a "gateway airport in the United States" means the last airport in the United States from which the traveler's flight
departs, or the first airport in the United States at which the traveler's flight arrives.
2. General Requirements of the Fly America Act
The Fly America Act, 49 U.S.C. App. 1517, as implemented in the Comptroller General's guidelines, Decision B-138942, March 31, 1981, requires Federal employees and their dependents, consultants, contractors, grantees, and others performing United States Government financed foreign air travel to travel by U.S. flag air carriers:
The Fly America Act is a Treaty with Europe. The “no fly list” is based on the Council of Europe Convention on the Prevention of Terrorism.
Article 14 Jurisdiction
1 Each Party shall take such measures as may be necessary to establish its jurisdiction over the offences set forth in this Convention:
a when the offence is committed in the territory of that Party;
b when the offence is committed on board a ship flying the flag of that Party, or on board an aircraft registered under the laws of that Party,
Article 15 – Duty to investigate
1 Upon receiving information that a person who has committed or who is alleged to have committed an offence set forth in this Convention may be present in its territory, the Party concerned shall take such measures as may be necessary under its domestic law to investigate the facts contained in the information.
2 Upon being satisfied that the circumstances so warrant, the Party in whose territory the offender or alleged offender is present shall take the appropriate measures under its domestic law so as to ensure that person’s presence for the purpose of prosecution or extradition. end. (comment) this is the bases for the “No Fly List’, the nation party to the Treaty is not allowed to inform the detained (arrested i.e. not free to travel) person the name of the complaining nation, it’s a secret.

Here’s the authority for the TSA to Screen passengers, it only applies to chartered aircraft for the Federal Government
TITLE 49—TRANSPORTATION CHAPTER 401--GENERAL PROVISIONS Sec. 40118. Government-financed air transportation
SEC. 606. CHARTER SECURITY.
(a) IN GENERAL.—Section 44903 is amended by adding at the
end the following:
‘‘(l) AIR CHARTER PROGRAM.—
‘‘(1) IN GENERAL.—The Under Secretary for Border and
Transportation Security of the Department of Homeland Security
shall implement an aviation security program for charter
air carriers (as defined in section 40102(a)) with a maximum
certificated takeoff weight of more than 12,500 pounds
Here’s the process to correct the obvious misapplication of the law. The Comptroller General administers all of this, this is why the TSA ignores all complaints. In June 1921, Congress effectively hid the Treasury of the United States by creating the General Accounting Office, under direction of the Comptroller General, then moved Treasury employees to GAO. GAO is an independent agency or department, and serves as general agent of the Treasury of the United States, in charge of determining legitimacy of all claims of or against the United States. A claim against the United States cannot be adjudicated in courts of the United States unless it has first been submitted to, and rejected by GAO. This is the reason so many cases against the "United States", etc., are dismissed as stating claims on which relief cannot be granted -- whoever initiates these cases doesn't know the claim must first be submitted to GAO.
