Granted, that would do the trick.

The question is how to get a large percentage of the flying public to stop flying.

How much of a drop in passengers, ticket revenue, car rental and hospitality losses would tip the scales?

The resistance by the security proponents and their attempt at spin would be serious, and would need to be countered by a clear, articulate campaign.

Perhaps an internet based, distributed campaign so well orchestrated that countering it would be impossible.

Maybe focusing on one airline, then a second one, would help.
