Most mportant issue here is how on earth a passenger got through security at AUH with a can/bottle of kerosene/petrol...

Surely to be considered as a potential explosive device and a major breach of airport security? AVSEC will have formed a distictive twitch over this and I wonder how security agencies in the States and Europe will view this event (if they ever receive a report...)

The FDP exceedence, although important, I would say takes a second place behind the security issue.
