letter your department sent

950

seemingly dated December 19th,

two days before Flight 103 came down.
952
00:53:46,285 --> 00:53:49,245

a German police photo

Your department's advice
to security staff
957
00:53:57,805 --> 00:54:00,005
is that if they're suspicious
about anything contained
958
00:54:00,005 --> 00:54:00,325
is that if they're suspicious
about anything contained
959
00:54:00,365 --> 00:54:03,405
within a piece of luggage,
they should place it in the hold.
960
00:54:03,445 --> 00:54:06,805
Which is exactly where the bomb
on Flight 103 went off.

Dr Swire, if I-
962
00:54:07,965 --> 00:54:08,005
So that even if they think
something is potentially dangerous,
963
00:54:08,005 --> 00:54:10,805
So that even if they think
something is potentially dangerous,
964
00:54:10,845 --> 00:54:13,085
they're still to allow it
onto the plane.
965
00:54:13,125 --> 00:54:15,165
Beggars belief.

00:54:15,205 --> 00:54:16,005
This advice was given on the basis
967
00:54:16,005 --> 00:54:18,565
This advice was given on the basis
968
00:54:18,605 --> 00:54:22,045
that most terror attacks
on commercial airliners
969
00:54:22,085 --> 00:54:24,005
are hijackings.
970
00:54:24,005 --> 00:54:24,165
are hijackings.

Our reasoning for advising
972
00:54:26,165 --> 00:54:29,565
that luggage containing anything
suspicious was put in the hold
973
00:54:29,605 --> 00:54:32,005
was to separate a potential hijacker
from his weapon,
974
00:54:32,005 --> 00:54:33,765
was to separate a potential hijacker
from his weapon,
975

and thus alleviate their ability
to hijack a plane.

you had legitimate concerns.

00:54:42,365 --> 00:54:44,805
Why else include a picture
of the radio-cassette recorder?
980
00:54:44,845 --> 00:54:47,365

986
