News channels reporting that IST is considered one of the safest airports in Europe thanks to its high levels of security. I have passed through this airport many times as crew and I can't say I agree with these statements.

I recently travelled through the new Brussels airport, heavy military presence and lots of pre screening of passengers before you reach the check in areas. Is this going to become the new normal for aviation? I sincerely hope not.
