You misunderstood me............I meant that particular individual, not rampers/gate agents in general. I actually have seen/experienced what rampers do..........I give them a lot of credit, didnt mean to generalize them, just this one particular guy, sorry for the confusion

Exactly. What's worse, a ramper trying to put guns and dope on a plane, or a pilot showing up for duty drunk.

I'm offended??
Whoaa man........calm down. You cant possibly condone or in any way try and down play what the ramp guy was doing. Its entirely conceivable that there are other people doin stuff similiar to what happened. As for the flying leap? I think ill pass.......
P.S: i think the Puerto Rican half of me is offended
just kidding.

i've also thought that if the TSA is worried about what contents a pilot carriers aboard an airplane, that they should have much more to worry about, as we don't need anything to be destructive (we're on the otherside of the locked door).
Past that, i think better security to ensure that the pilots are who we say we are could go further than simply doing random crew member searches.

GOD IS GREAT!!!!!!! Egypt Air flight 990
At 0148:30, about 11 seconds after the captain left the cockpit, the CVR recorded an unintelligible comment.10 Ten seconds later (about 0148:40), the relief first officer stated quietly, "I rely on God."11 There were no sounds or events recorded by the flight recorders that would indicate that an airplane anomaly or other unusual circumstance preceded the relief first officer's statement, "I rely on God."

Who said I condone it??? I think they should be shot on the spot, my point is the headline read "This is the last thing Comair needs". Advertising it like all employees at Comair smuggle drugs. The article should have said "Can you believe this idiot" or something like "not a good day for the airlines". Guess we know who the doomsdayers (and Puerto Ricans) are.

Nothing will happen to Comair because of this. As an industry, we will probably see some drastic changes to our security access. The title of this should read "The Last Thing This Industry Needs".
I'm willing to bet that these kind of events (smuggling contra-ban) happen more than we will ever know. They even said in the article, they didn't think this was the first time.
