If you're on the list by mistake then they should take you off, if you're not on it by mistake, then they shouldn't let you fly, since after all, that seems to be the point of the list.
What's frustrating is that the no-fly list only takes into account first and last name, not middle name, date of birth, social security number, passport number, etc. So everyone with his first and last name (it's a very common name) is supposedly on the no-fly list.
Lufthansa told him that the name "Jurgen Schmitt" is on the no-fly list, and of course every flight they have a Jurgen Schmitt who is on the list (it's one of the most common men's names in Germany).
