What a crock of SH**! The airlines are not responsible for security, the
US Government is, Sue them. The airlines have never made the rules
either.  Blame the government.

This ought to be interesting:
    On the day before the third anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks
    on the U.S., insurers for some World Trade Center buildings
    sued American and United Airlines and others, alleging their
    negligence allowed the deadly hijackings. The suit, which was
    filed by London's QBE International Insurance and certain
    underwriters at Lloyd's of London, seeks over $300 million from
    each of the two airlines and various amounts from other
    defendants. The insurers want to recover monies they paid out
    for property damage and other losses caused to World Trade
    Center buildings 1, 2, 4 and 5 as well as nearby structures.
    The case is among a number of Sept. 11 related suits filed
    recently to meet the three-year statute of limitations deadline
    on Saturday. Among defendants in the case are the airlines'
    parents AMR CORP. and UAL CORP. United said it does not comment
    on pending litigation. American did not have an immediate
    comment. For a list of other defendants, click the "More..."
