Nope. But it does show that the security services are doing their job.

OUR Dept. of Homeland Security, unfortunately, seems to be a joke.

Let's see. Has there been a act of terrorism in the US since 9/11 or the
creation of DHS?

Nope, but when two other consultants and I leave from our work city to
travel home today, I will be boarding a Bonanza V35 as casually as the day
before while my two co-workers will be braving the Northwest and Delta
Airlines security lines at Buffalo International Airport, no doubt slowed
by the many who have forgotten about the new, no carry-on liquid allowed
restriction implemented this morning.

Flash forward an hour and a half and I will have landed and stowed my
aircraft at my home airport and my co-workers will have just begun the
boarding process.

Long live GA.

My parents are currently in Europe, scheduled to fly out of Heathrow for
Chicago next Thursday. To say the least, they will probably have the limits
of their sense of adventure pushed and their patience tested.

Sorry to read that. I, too, suspect that their return home will be quite
an adventure for them.

True -- but thank your lucky stars that the terrorists were
foiled...for the time being.

The best is to avoid the passengers to fly :-)

No longer terrorists will attempt to hijack some aircraft !

Oh, we are so not looking forward to the flight home from the
Philippines in November. :-(

I wonder if any cruise ships or even tramp steamers are headed that way?
