ExSp33db1rd,
With respect, your comments to MAS -- especially your last sentence --sound presumptuous; even a tad arrogant.
My apologies if it came over like that.
And xspeedbird is right. Passenger screening is a sick joke and perfect security is not obtainable. Cargo screening is even tougher to achieve, ie impossible.
I'm clearly not alone in my opinon.
Right now all we know is that a 2-man crew died doing their best with the tools and resources - be they mechanical or human - at their disposal, and don't we all want to avoid a repetition ?
Maybe the TSA will have a part to play in achieving that - but I doubt it.
Best of luck chaps.
Over and Out.
