[QUOTE=FWAAA;8602774]Airline crews and airport employees are exempt from the shoe removal.

Airline crews are exempt from the war on liquids as well.[QUOTE]

If they are indeed exempt, the public should be outraged. Yawn, I know, they don't care. I find it outrageous. Ever hear of "clean skins" or the doctors UK doctors in London?

Grrrr.
