[Margaret Pilkington]

I regularly flew all over the world(OK,perhaps not as regularly as Boeing Guy).......I stopped flying when security measures meant that I was treated like a terrorist.

I am an elderly(though spry) lady.......unlikely to have anything in my water bottle other than water.....so why treat me as a terrorist?
OK...someone out there is going to say 'What does a terrorist look like?'.......and althouh I can not give a comprehensive answer to that question, I know that we are going about it the wrong way.
There has to be a better way than what we have now. And as distasteful as it is(to some people), we have to look at profiling.

Boeing Guy has posted some very salient posts about what happens at Ben Gurion airport........one that, theoretically would be at great risk, yet their way of handling travelling public is effective and non intrusive as it could possibly be......why is this? Because they operate a form of profiling.

I will not travel by air again until I am treated in the manner to which I can relate.
