LH doesn't arrive or park at the mid-field concourse. Also, mid-field security is some modified pre-check for all passengers. Shoes stay on (which has been the case for all passengers since the summer), laptops stay in bag (with new CT scanners), and everyone just goes through regular metal detector (no body scanners). The last few times it has taken me less than 8min to get through security.
