Sounds to me that FWAAA is just pig headed. What on earth do you need nail clippers for on a flight. Are you telling me your nails grow so fast that they need cutting every two hours ??? Dont you realise that you are simply being an A**e when you act like this.
I made a mistake a few weeks ago and in my hand luggage, something had fallen behind the liner. This was actually a leatherman knife The staff took their time, systematically emptied the bag and found it. They very kindly advised me on how to go back through security and check in the offending item, which the NW desk clerk packed in a box and labelled up for me.
Second time through they were just as efficent and very polite.
These people are not here for the fun of it or to make nutters like you a source of entertainment.
If you dont like the rules, which will only get tougher, then I suggest you go by train. I am sure yu could find plenty to complain about there.
