The following sounds wise to me. Unfortunately, the US majors on the cookie cutter.
“There has to be an element of not being sure what security you are being subjected to. Most attacks on aviation are well reconnaissanced and well planned. If you have a consistent security system around the globe it is quite easy to reconnoitre that and predict it.”
Mr Hutcheson was speaking ahead of a security conference by the International Civil Aviation Organisation, a UN body, in Geneva.
He has backed more sophisticated techniques including “behavioural detection” which has already been tested by BAA at its six airports: Heathrow, Stansted, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Aberdeen and Stansted.
This has seen key BAA staff trained to look out for unusual behaviour by passengers while they are waiting for a flight in the airport terminal.
Mr Hutcheson wants airports to be given greater freedom to draw up their own security arrangements. - telegraph.co.uk
