External Aircraft Security - from Gate to Holding Point

[Stonebird]

Despite all the security measures which have recently been invoked, ( including such effective measures as the confiscation of razor blades) the actual aircraft themselves are still vulnerable to a single terrorist who has cut through the airport fence and now waits in the grass near the holding point, in the dark, with a bag of limpet mines....indeed, this increased 'internal' security, concerning mostly pax and baggage leaves the outside of the aircraft the most vulnerable at this time. Keep your eyes skinned at those remote holding points.
