Oh, and as for your baggage handler, maybe the QGM was a bit hasty:
Glasgow terror hero is 'a fake who failed to land a blow on burning man' during airport attack, say bitter colleagues
Alex McIlveen, who tore a tendon in his foot while tackling burning Kafeel Ahmed, told reporters: "John Smeaton is not telling the whole truth. When it came to tackling the bombers, he didn't land a blow."
Mr McIlveen claimed it was he and two other men, Michael Kerr and Stephen Clarkson, who were mainly responsible for defeating the terrorists that day and all Mr Smeaton contributed were fine words.
"It was the policeman, Michael Kerr and myself who tackled the first bomber after he got out the passenger side of the jeep. Then it was Stephen Clarkson, myself and three other policemen who tried to stop the second one who was on fire.
"As far as I am concerned, at no point did John Smeaton attempt to tackle the bombers.
