Mick, I hope you did not take my comments as any kind of criticism of anyone, because they certainly were not meant in that way. As I said in my last post, I really don't know if what I was speculating about was even possible under the circumstances. But I do know that giving law enforcement people training in dealing with people with mental illnesses is a good thing for everyone involved, not least being the law enforcement people themselves.

Having said that, I also agree with the Guest who has brought up the subject of airport security prior to passengers boarding the plane.
