But what local law enforcement can and can not do - and who knows how much paper work was required for them to bring c4 into an airport? - does not apply to federal agencies, I would doubt. Specifically because that local agency deals exclusively with IEDs and the GAO does not.
So are terrorist going to use military grade explosives or magic tang explosives?

I would try to make something that look like anything but a weapon if I was in that business.
