To be fair, while not as big as flying a plane into the WTC, blowing one up would still be possible.

- _ph_ 5y agoYes, but that has rarely happened in history. And to prevent that, we do scan the luggage and make sure that there is no unidentified luggage on the plane.
- Godel_unicode 5y agoThe shoe scanning is an extension of that, based off of the real threat that someone will pack shoes with explosives. The only reason it didn't work the last time it was tried was that the bomber stayed in their seat as opposed to e.g. using the toilet.
