Aviation Security - more of the same

We ask again - how much longer can the airline industry take this? How much more can the traveling public handle? These stories are like water torture - each one another drip, driving everyone crazy. These little drips are reducing the attraction of air travel. Its not looking good. ------------ AP -- A U.S. Airways jet flying to North Carolina was diverted to Oklahoma City after an air marshal subdued a passenger involved in an incident with a flight attendant, an airline spokesman said. Law enforcement officers were questioning the passenger after the jet landed at Will Rogers World Airport, said Morgan Durrant, a U.S. Airways spokesman. He did not disclose the nature of the problem between the passenger and the flight attendant. Also Friday, an American Airlines flight from Manchester, England, to Chicago was diverted to Bangor, Maine, for security reasons, authorities said. FBI spokeswoman Gail Marcinkiewicz declined to discuss the nature of the problem.
