I know sounds completly BS, I thought it was too but, from what I have gathered its true. There were kickoff flight cx'd this morning too. So just a friendly word of advice for the ORD guys and gals be sure to pay extra attention when check out your A/C in the morning. You never know you just might find a TSA agent climbing all over it in the morning Oh, if this does turn out to be false I'll let you know. Its hard to believe but, thought I'd out it there in case anybody came across this.
lol, wow. that would be hilarious if it was true. i can just see them now trying to break into a plane. "here twist this probe, its probably the lock to the door"! hahaha

on a side note however, i have always said if i have to evacuate the plane with the rope i am taking every probe with me on my way down!
