I'm not sure I'm following you?
Are you saying this is some kind of hoax to higlight how slack airport security is?
Yeah in a nut shell.
So many things to be answered for and the way the media have instant yfocused on the security side of.things as opposed to the other side of the coin and the story about the boy, why he did it etc?
I don't understand your logic at all or how an 11 year old boarding a flight in Manchester has anything to do with the Olympics
Why? So many questions that are lacking answers which leave the story very far fetched, i have just identified a few.
Im not saying anything is to do or not to do with the Olympics, my point was more about security which you would expect to be tightened around this time, again questioning the authenticity of the story.

I fly worldwide on a near weekly basis, and Airport Security is the bane of my fucking life.
How a child can get through all of the control measures and not be found out until mid-flight is beyond me.
Also

The spokesman said: "It is clear that documentation has not been checked correctly at security and the boarding gate.
"The boy went through full security screening, so the safety of passengers and the aircraft was never compromised."
Contradiction much? I'm sorry, but documentation checks are part of the whole security screening process, so to say the full process was performed is utter tosh.

An 11 year old kid isn't a thread, people need to stop looking into everything as terrorism.
Nothing worse than rascism.......
Unless its factually incorrect rascism

Not defending racism but what's incorrect about a Pakistani wearing a turban?

Because turbans are part of the Sikh faith and Nothing to do with Islam/Muslim of which Pakistan exists solely because of the divide in religion in India.
The terrorist jibe was aimed at jihadist muslims who take a fancy to avro terrorism. Whilst Sikhs have been linked with one such instance in the past (although never proven) they don't tend to blow shit up like their arch enemies do.
I was merely pointing out he had his generalisations a wrong
