I find ALL Heathrow really bad for security scanning then Perth Australia domestic and very close second. I'm a frequent traveler with platinum airline status, late 40's and white so I'm ALWAYS taken out of the line with 7 other men of my age group and we are ALL told to open our briefcases, lift out shirts for the random checks while traveling through Perth. I have no issue with the individual checks but my issue comes with stopping up to 8 of us at a time and conducting a random "sniffer" check. It takes ages for all of us to be stopped, lines up, swabbed and wait for the results. No "profiling" is done. I'm told that I'm stopped because I'm an easy target.........thats not the point of a swab test !
Before you all kick off, I am aircrew who travels a lot to get to/from my worksite and really appreciate airport security, I'm ALWAYS polite and and greet them with a smile but as I said, surely it should profile the threats and not the people who are easy to scan?
