Student’s Science Project Shuts Down Dallas Airport
Found on WebProNews on Wednesday, 04 April 2012
The device was discovered by authorities near the cockpit of Southwest Airlines Flight 157 after arriving from Kansas City shortly before 4PM on Sunday.
The TSA evacuated gates 3 through 15 as a precautionary measurement against the “deadly” science project. In all, 11 people were detained in connection with the device. The incident caused ongoing flight delays at the Dallas airport, including three that had to be diverted.
As if terrorists are stupid enough to build a bomb that looks like a bomb. I bet all terrorists are laughing about the giant failure which the TSA is. Seriously, they found the science project after the plane landed, which means it was not only brought into the plane without any problems, but also didn't get noticed during the flight. If that would have been a bomb, the plane would have gone down in flames and the TSA would have a tough time to explain its failure; but now they even have the nerve to make it look like they did their job.
