[TrunkCom] Scanners on Airplanes

Sun, 13 Jan 2002 15:11:22 +0000

The last week of Sep '01 I departed Houston enroute to Toronto with three
(3) scanners in my carry on without any inspection other than the
carry-on xray.  On my return from Vacouver, BC to Houston I was made to
"disconnect the batteries and not reconnect them until I arrived in
Houston".  This was done by one of the "screeners".  Of course, I did not
reconnect them until I arrived in Houston. YEAH SURE!
