You can always run as fast as you can.

Quoting a very frequent traveler I met at a conference, in reference to why he goes for the pat down over the scan:

"Well, officer, I travel a lot. And I get lonely"

The "trade association" describes the airlines, not the passengers.

Their would be not good safety reasons to apply different rules to commercial vs non-commercial passengers.

Of course you can. In jurisdictions where cops carry guns, cops would not dream of hitting the street with a faulty weapon.

If your camera is broken, you don't leave the station house. And if you are responsible for basic day to day maintenance of your camera, and it is broken, you don't get paid.

When are you going to have a crossover with Triumph?
