Why would anyone bother to try to coerce a crewmember? How many rampers, fuelers, cleaners, etc have daily access to the "secure" areas with NO screening?
I don't know how it works on airports in the usa but here at ams everybody gets screened, rampers cleaners fuelers etc. I myself am an ground engineer and have to go through security everytime, even my lunchbox is suspect
. But when i am through i get my toolkit and have access to all kinds of materials to do some damage if i wanted to. So why can't i take a nailclipper with me but in my toolkit i have a leatherman spanners wrenches etc
