Oslo Airport Screeners Worse than Ours! |
2007-12-13 |
![]() A test of security controls at Oslo's main airport at Gardermoen had such shockingly poor results that several security guards were dismissed and aviation officials are demanding improvements. A test of security controls at Gardermoen reportedly had dismal results. Newspaper VG reported Friday that fully eight out of nine persons assigned to test the system made it through security while carrying knives and even bombs. One woman had a knife concealed in her bra, another mock passenger testing the system had a bullet hidden in a hair barrette and others sent three bags carrying bombs through the airport's X-ray system. Only one of the bombs was discovered. |

#2 State security isn't any better. The best way is to keep "mystery shopping" and fining those companies that fail/ sacking incompetants. The funding mechanism is irrelevant. |

#1 Private security firms are incompetent? Well, I never! You mean they're not just hired to fill a bullet point on a requirement? |
