* if focussing on what could be loaded on airlines that doesn't belong to any of the passengers, don't forget (checked/unchecked) cargo
* I am not aware that the 9/11 tragedy had anything to do with screaning/not screening checked baggage
* I feel a lot more uncomfortable than on planes when driving in long tunnels (not knowing at all what the lorries before/behind me have loaded) like the St. Gotthard (Switzerland), the tunnels to/from Manhattan or the Eisenhower Tunnel on the (Colorado) Interstate when driving Denver - Vail.
* the 9/11 tragedy resulted in many more casualties on the ground than on planes
