Plane hijack

[milanbenes]

Shouldn't that raise questions about Airport Security as well ? Convincing looking devices even though not real. Haven't there been reports of children's toy guns being checked ?

Also, once the plane is on a tarmac, I believe the process is for the pilots to disembark via their window though not sure if this is still current procedure

Actually, a couple of years ago, after Christmas I flew out of Brisl airport with the Mrs and children, unfortunately, we had 2 Nerf guns like this http://cdn2-b.examiner.com/sites/def...?itok=NrJCBPyE (let's call them actuators) in the hand luggage and the security wouldn't let them through, said they looked like guns, obviously it wasn't worth paying sleazy jet the extra for added luggage so I went back to Information and gave them to the lady working there and asked her to "dispose" of them.

That is quite funny.

One of the TV reports said he was a vet, so he may have had a plausible reason for travelling with rolled up bandages and coloured tubes.

I'm sure the men, women and children on board laughed their @rses off during the flight, with the "comical" suicide bomber threatening to blow them all to pieces.

I hope he gets 20 years in a Cyprus prison to think about his jolly jape.

I guess the guy, being in Europe now, will be classed as an asylum seeker, no charges will be pressed on the hijacking, and he'll be on his way to a life of free housing, healthcare and money in the UK within weeks.

He'll get free housing, food and healthcare all right. In prison.
