Security Risk
GW, having had several instances of having to delay whilst a search of the aircraft was conducted (C130 & B747) to try and locate a device and also having to have a suspicious radio/player removed after leaving the gate (found by a Cabin attendant during pax boarding and told it would be alright by the station traffic officer, just after it was confirmed an explosive device in such a radio brought down the PanAm B747 over Lockerbie) I appreciate your point. How did the unfortunate person get into the gear well undetected? Maybe he was a worker with an airside pass at the departure airport. In any event, I agree that the security aspect cannot be dismissed.
