There's nothing to prevent a terrorist getting on a plane, but
the tools of the trade should be barred; most of them already
are, so why not things that make fire?

 JW> BTW Roslind's flights in and out of Kug were on a First Air ATR42-300
 JW> combi: 22 seats plus cargo.  Their fleet are certified for cold
 JW> weather operations to -54 C/ -65 F (they fly as far north as Resolute)

I have checked out flying to Resolute, but Longyearbyen is 4 degrees
farther north and perhaps somewhat more temperate, also possible
to get there using miles. I've been putting the farthest north and
farthest south trips off until my financial circumstances allow for
these indulgences (the extremes are major expensive, as you know),
as that will ever happen. Plus checking bags, which I am allergic
to, would be a necessity, which makes me wonder, what happens if
they lose the bag that has my winter woollies in it?

I don't recall getting anything to eat on AC Jazz. Mainline
once served me truly wonderful Canadian bacon (cured pork
loin to you).

I'm sure that Abdul Rahman would get a quick look, though.

Why stop there - grocery stores. By the way, I checked the
Web for symptoms of diabetes, and two are sudden weight
gain and sudden weight loss. H'm. Those are coincidentally
also symptoms of cancer.
