Guys,
We are all major stars in "The Greatest Security Show on Earth!"
When the traveling public see's pilots getting cavity searched, and their toiletries confiscated, they make the "logical" assumption that IT MUST BE SAFE! Even the PILOTS are getting searched!
The entire issue is political.
From any angle that you view it from, politics are running this show, and any form of EFFECTIVE security enhancements will be a HUGE surprise to me. Expect more eyewash and harassment of flight crews.
