Yes, yes and yes.
Another example of our excellent security measures;
As Copenhagen is considered "contaminated" (maybe they allow tabasco on board?), our passengers have to go through security at their destinaiton (in this case TRF in Norway). Fair enough, since they enter the CSRA through tax free shops, transit halls etc. Then for the interesting part; The crew, having parked the aircraft on a remote stand, leave all our belongings on board the aircraft, go inside the terminal to be scanned and checked (for tabasco jalapeņos and sambal oelek - that **** is DANGEROUS!), and then we can return to our aircraft to do a security check/search. Because the aircraft is also contaminated... We search our own bags to see if we brought any bombs on board. We then take the bombs, knifes and RPGs (which we had forgotten all about by this time) and hand them over to our explosive ordnance demolition crew. They then tow the aircraft back to the normal stand. Way to go guys. Cleverly thought out way of wasting time and money...
So, to recap; yes, yes and yes.
