There are probably different operational criteria when under the heightened alert orange, thus the response is exaggerated to incidents which would have been disregarded prior to the change.

That is becoming the normal. Even this morning on a Chicago radio stations, the DJ's were talking about driving to Detroit because of the time and hassle at the airport.

I first started to hate it in the mid 80's when Eastern got that big fine for safety concerns...then I started listening to the CVR before crashes and it made it worse!

"12 crew members"

Is it just coincidence that one of recently diverted/returned flights also had >>>12<<< suspicious passengers on board?

I am terrified of the terrorist. I am more afraid of bad weather on a flight.

If I am not mistaken, a student had dynamite in his check luggage on a flight to Newark. The student's flight originated in Argentina but, don't worry because he said he was "involved with mining". I was "involved" with mining for 30 years and we always transported our explosives bu air, in our luggage, along with the dirty underwear. More to come, I am sure. Have a nice flight.

Then maybe we ought to start offering mid flight ejections.
