Security at Merrill Field is a joke.  And it is because the Mumicipality of Anchorage runs it.  Where else can a plane take off of an urban airport undetected and be used in a suicide attack on a spouse's office building?  What other airfield sees dozens of planes vandalized all at once?  The MOA needs to get out of the airport management business and sell or outsource the airport to a private entity.  It would save tax payers money and give the aviation industry a safer and more secure airport.
