OK, may be this is been talked about in another thread (http://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/f...ecurity-61729/). right now too lazy to look.

The question was posted by a family friend on Facebook - "How do airport screeners handle the new pat-downs with guys in kilts who go commando?" Or better yet, anyone have to deal with the pat down's of recent? Any "problems" or problems?

I'm sure that it would be as unpleasant for them as it would be for the kilty in question but if you wanna get on the plane, that's the way it is.

The last time I went through airport security I simply smiled and said " I hope you have wamr hands, and aren't shy". As has been said, if you want to fly you just have to buck up and deal with it.

Well, I did read (finally) and seanacie on page 7, post #63 did report his, ah, experience with airport security.

Sorry for taking up the band width ;)

Why would you need a pat down if you're gonna go thru the new 'backscatter' xray machines?

<sigh> Yeah, I guess that's why we have 3 threads on this topic in the past 48 hours. I think that's the first thing EVERYONE should do when they're too lazy to look: start a new thread!

Yes, I did say that but I did follow it up with the information and (I think

) an apology. But hey, there is lotsa bandwidth left so lets start another thread!!!

I am flying kilted on Wednesday. I'll let you know how it went. Baltimore to San Diego to Las Vegas.

The pat-down is an alternative to the cancer-causing naked-picture machines.

We have had two threads on this very subject closed down. Why don't we wait till Frank flys kilted. Then he can report back to us about his kilted experience. I have no doubt that he will answer questions put to him.
