we have a security point where most of the people (dispatchers/ramp/loaders) working airside may take certain things through ..milk, bottles of coke and such, but flight crew are denied this -
we have the crew for a frieghter that comes in every day and they are denied liquids even thought they have a crash axe 2 foot away from them.
i always thought restricting flight crew was totally pointless as all they need to do to crash/kill people would be to push the little stick forward.
well done that man!
whoever thought this up needs to shake hands with a prop.
Geezers of Nazareth - i have to try your idea of the frozen water i would love to see them explain that one.
and Lauderdale - couldn't agree more, the check-in/dispatchers/ramp/cabin guys are the people who would spot something since they are in the position to notice something odd, and i have done in the past.
