Passengers to fly nude under Obama's new law.
December 31, 2009 in Uncategorized
President Barak Obama has unveiled strict new airline restrictions which will require travellers into the USA to fly naked. This new rule comes on the back of an attempted bombing of an American bound flight last week.
There have been mixed reactions to such a bold move to counter terrorism. Those within the airline industry are praising such an innovative move and believe this is a sure way to avoid passengers smuggling unwanted bombs onto planes.
One of the key aspects to this new law is that the law will come into effect immediately and must be followed by pilots, ground crew, air traffic controllers and even taxi drivers arriving at the airport. In a publicity stunt Barak Obama even took off all his clothing while one Air Force One earlier today, but declined a photo opportunity.
The Pilots Union, which has over 40,000 members worldwide, has condemned the move and will lodge a formal protest in the courts. This move has been back by the Air Force who are disappointed the new rules will also affect their fighter pilots.
Obama was quoted as saying “this is an important step in the USA’s fight against terrorist. I’m only glad I don’t fly cattle class like the rest of you guys.”
