Description:

The events of September 11 compelled the American public to look at air travel as much more than merely another way of getting from point A to point B. An industry that was previously viewed as a routine component of modern transport is now seen as both a vital national asset and vulnerable security risk. In this probing critique of aviation security since 9/11, Andrew Thomas, a globally recognised aviation security expert, examines the recent overhaul of the national aviation security system.
