11. Fact is, we always will be.. it's all security theater
The guy who loads up the beverage / meal carts outside the airport could stick a gun in one (they're specific to a particular plane on flights with meals.)

The guy who fuels up the plane could stuff a pocketful of ball bearings into the fuel system.

The ground crew who check the hydraulic system could plant a bomb in the landing gear..

...



There is no 100% safe way to secure an airport, either from a rogue traveler or employee. The sooner we accept that, the sooner we can get back to flying with more than an ounce of shampoo and the slap & tickle from the TSA.
