Some US airports are now requiring that a video camera also be passed through security separately (as well as a computer).
Does anyone know if a laptop (or camera) has ever been used in a hijack attempt?
The whole issue is a joke so long as security only applies to the crew and passengers while the rest of the airport gets a free pass. Like paying for security service on your home and they put a detector on the front door only, leaving the back door and windows unguarded. What amuses me is that so many people buy the whole TSA garbage, even pilots.
You CAN fool all of the people all of the time! The TSA (and their equivalents) are proving it every day!
