Despite all the "stories" on the internet, there have been how many hijackings? NONE. I thought so. And how many arrests? Well, we'll never know. But, having been on a commercial airliner that had a small fire, deliberately set by a passenger, (entire passenger cabin filled with smoke so thick you couldn't see three feet in under a minute) prior to implementing the current security "nonsense", I'd have to say from first hand experience that the inconvenience out weights the potential consequences of returning to the easy days of pre 9/11.
