Now im just asking so please dont abuse me.
Would it not make sense to be 'safe than sorry' cause I bet there is at least one pilot somewhere in the world that is a bit fanatical about his beliefs and cant wait to meet his maker.....
One more....
If the outside world believe pilots to be beyond security checks would that not encourage some terror group to send the boys in posing as pilots?
I am a police officer and when at the airport, I was searched by some three quid an hour security boff and when I say searched I mean, he put his hand all over me.... So, I do know how it feels and I dont like it but I also understand... better to be safe than sorry.
I know someone is gonna have a swipe at me for speaking
