At the moment anyone can
walk into an airport terminal, join the huge queues without a single
check. The equipment previously not being capable of coping with the
conditions mentioned above.


The Turkish manage to seal their airport terminals very effectively by
simply having the security check at the terminal building's entrance
doors.

But that's not as "sexy" as new, cutting-edge equipment, so wouldn't
have appealed to either our politicians or the senior security bods.

Practical answers never do, not when there's a chance of playing with
"sexy" new toys. -(
