Airport Security / Problems : A 9 page research
paper that
investigates the state of airport security especially in the Untied
States. Despite increased acts of terrorism in the world that are
directed at airports and airlines and the terrorist attacks that
have occurred in the United States, this country still does not
take seriously the potential threat to airlines. Increased security
measures are in force but the flagrant violations are frightening.
Machines do exist that can detect today's sophisticated
explosive devices but they are extremely costly and only a few
airports are using them. The writer discusses the problems
found at airports and machines that can increase security.

continue to grow. Delta and American Airlines bicker far less

focuses in their core businesses, but some of the others,
especially United Airlines, have not given up the crusade
against the smaller carriers. Bibliography lists 11 sources.
