Ian Hutcheson, the head of security at BAA, has called for a dramatic overhaul of how passengers are screened.
His remarks, in an interview in the Guardian, comes as Philip Hammond, the Transport Secretary, is pressing for greater flexibility in airport security, ending the almost identical methods adopted around the world.
This, according to Mr Hutcheson, played into the hands of terrorists, because they can predict what they will face at the airport.

El Al security has been secure even without full body scanners, and they think that the US measures are ineffective anyway.

Pointless. All they'd have to do is pick an airport and do a dry run with no explosives, they they know everything they need anyway.
