TURIN
I was recently casevaced into Glasgow from Tiree with a fractured starboard olecranon. Four days later, sporting a newly rebuilt elbow complete with titanium screws and wire, I returned to GLA to catch Loganair's Twin Otter back to the Island.
As I approached the bleeper, it suddenly ocurred to me that my new elbow might cause it some excitement, so I mentioned the fact to the security chap, who replied "no problem sir, Titanium doesn't set it off... but have you got your X-rays with you?"
I had, so he told me to pass them round the outside so they wouldn't be fogged.
Nothing but courtesy and good humour throughout - give me the Highlands and Islands every time.
