It does sort of justify the increased security measures which is unfortunate. Here I was thinking they had gone over the top.
You would also think they may make an example of the individuals just so they can hold out the case as supporting the requirements.
In lots of ways this is a bit like road rage, hate to think what may have been done if the aircraft couldn't be moved.
Unfortunate thing is I think the main player in this fiasco is a commercial pilot. Not a lot of stability there to encourage you I would think and the inability to think through the issues is a worry.
