The FAA did not change the employee screening rules. It was Elizabeth Dole as Secretary of Transportation. After this tragedy she demanded that FLIGHT CREWS go through security screening even though the flight crews on that aircraft had nothing to do with it's loss. However security screening for all other airport employees did not change, even though they WERE responsible for the demise of PSA 1771. That policy still stands today, with the exception that if a employee wants to travel they must go through screening.
