"What it's most vulnerable to right now is someone putting aboard a cargo shipment contants that could then be used to explode the aircraft or a person on board the aircraft who could then take over the aircraft," said Collins.
A spokesman for UPS says security could be tighter at other airports, international or domestic, compared to Louisville, based on particular threats or the region. He says no changes are being ordered from this latest threat because the company believes security measures already in place are sufficient.
But Collins says that what they are advocating is maintaining that standard throughout the system. "One level of security, one level of safety," says Collins.
The Independent Pilots Association recommends three areas of improvement: better employee screening, comprehensive cargo screening, and allowing cargo pilots to carry guns.
That way if the package gets through screening we can shoot the darn thing!
Go UPS!
