>As trains were mentioned earlier - does anyone know the current OP's <
i dont really think with trains any need would be required to actually take control of a train. You could hardly deviate and head to the nearest tower block.
But all it would take on the miles of intercity track is to blow up a section in front of a high speed train to derail the lot and cause no end of damage or to see the total lack of security on the packed london tubes to realise the potential danger and threat.
But we all know how impossible it would be to do anything to stop such an occurence so government target aviation. They have built an industry and thousands of jobs within the aviation industry through security and at the cost of the aviation industry.
This has been with the false presumption or excuse that Aviation= terrorism and Terrorism = aviation assisted by the press and media.
