Passenger: United Cabin Crew Thinks Books About Old Airplanes Signify A Security Threat

wilwheaton:

Last week, folk singer and aviation enthusiast Vance Gilbert thought he’d pass the time on his United Airlines flight from Boston to Washington, DC, by perusing some books about old aircraft. This was apparently enough to set off alarm bells among the flight crew, who had the plane return to the gate where Gilbert was met by the authorities.

It’s good to know that books about old airplanes are as dangerous as 3.4 ounces of toothpaste.

Shit, I hate to think what would happen if they saw me browsing my own Tumblr…
