ITEMS WITH POTENTIAL... TO BRING DOWN AN AEROPLANE
We see the news and learn of conflict within other countries. Never do we presume that it could come closer to home. The attacks of 9/11 have dramatically changed the sense of security within our country. In September 2006, in response to potential threats, the airline industry brought in new and stricter guidelines of what one is able to carry onto aircraft. Items such as liquids, scissors etc could not be taken on board. Everyone was treated as a suspect. These items are day-to-day objects but in the view of the government have the potential to cause mass attacks. |
