Yep I've seen it..of course it's no where as bad here...but still 911 sure changed World travel forever..Halgar wrote:Heck, bring the Zweihander and customs won't be a problem!![]()

Speaking of customs, have you seen Witless Protection? It's the movie where Larry the Cable Guy is a cop who takes a protected witness from the protective custody. One of the scenes has him at the airport trying to go through security and ends up "behind the scenes" in a strip search. The whole movie was great, but this particular section is quite appropriate to todays over zealous and anal TSA bullsh*t.

Re: www.rctech.net
Just don't try to enter here or it IS as bad as you've heard. Apparently if you want to leave the country it's easy, just don't expect to return without the anal probe.

Oh, the towel is fine, just don't try to bring in a box cutter or more than 3 ounces of hair jell.

Apparently some unsavory types (from Australia ... ) have scuttled illicit things in their shoes. We can't take any more than 3 ounces of any liquid onboard anymore. Now you know why we don't like Aussies.tizeye wrote:What's with the Gel? Stick Up's?

Bloody Aussies...of course the great "Under Arm" fiasco exposed them for what they really are to the "WHOLE WORLD"

Re: www.rctech.net
Last year I went with a Lady collogue over the big pond to hang with the Jaguar and Land Rover chaps. We had a free afternoon, visited Warwick Castle, very cool yet quite eerie. So my associate decides to buy some souvenirs.Halgar wrote:Just don't try to enter here or it IS as bad as you've heard.

Apparently fairly large sword shaped ‘letter openers’ are also an issue for the TSA.
Always figured she was a natural Blond. Confirmed.

Re: www.rctech.net
To my knowledge there are no restrictions for checked baggage, it's only the carry on stuff that is at issue. Could be wrong, don't know, I refuse to fly.

Re: www.rctech.net
At the moment I don't go anywhere that I can't drive to. I don't have a need or want to travel, so it's not a big deal and I'm not missing out on much. I'll go up in private aircraft, just not commercial stuff.
