Does anyone know how they choose people for security screening prior to the flight? </font>
by eye. It doesn't involve a computer. In >80% of cases it is the first person up, yesterday I was selected while 3rd in line from the agent.
To avoid being selected simply hang back until they are busy then march up and go!
