Explosives found on Delta Airlines enough to destroy the plane in pieces

One man stupid action lead to worldwide chain reactions - that is the effect of one arse hole Nigerian guy who thinks he can kill innocent people just as easily as killing flies, by just snapping his ugly black fingers to detonate a powerful explosive device that can bring down a Northwest Airlines Flight 253 Airbus A330, killing everybody on board.

That ultra evil Nigerian man name is Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, born 23 years ago in Hell..

Who the hell Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab thinks he is? Osama bin Laden chief assasin? or Hitler and General Tojo henchman???

According to Reuters report today, airline passengers this weekend already faced tighter security after that Nigerian man tried to blow up the Northwest Airlines plane as it approached Detroit on a flight bound from Amsterdam on Friday.

According to a guest on the CNN Larry King show, the explosives found would have been sufficient to destroy the plane in pieces.

Tighter security measures at U.S. airports following this terror attempt could dampen enthusiasm for air travel, hurting the airline industry just as it seemed poised to recover from a period of bruising losses, some industry experts say.

The Department of Homeland Security, DHS said it was boosting airport security after the incident and advised passengers they may experience more scrutiny. One DHS official said available security measures that could be implemented range from bomb-sniffing dogs to behavior detection as well as other techniques.

And the tighter security is not being confined to U.S. airports. Passengers may also face pat-downs and are being ordered to stay seated during the last hour of flight with nothing on their laps.

If it becomes something like a four-hour wait, business travelers aren't going to do that. They're either not going to travel or they're going to hire their own private lift, and just avoid scheduled transportation altogether.

The security changes come just as major U.S. airlines had been trumpeting the return of demand from well-heeled business travelers who pay full fare.

Delta Air Lines , which merged with Northwest Airlines last year, in mid-December had said its fourth-quarter revenue trends had suggested a better 2010.

Delta, like other airlines, had responded to the huge drop in traffic as the recession sapped corporate and consumer demand by cutting capacity.

The U.S. airline industry, which lost $23.6 billion in 2008, has slashed capacity and increased fares to cope with weaker demand and higher fuel prices.

After Friday's attempted attack, Air Canada advised U.S.-bound travelers to expect flight delays, cancellations and missed connections, and limit themselves to a single piece of carry-on baggage.

Air Canada said on its website that new rules imposed by the U.S. Transportation Security Administration also limit on-board activities in U.S. airspace that could adversely impact in-flight service.

"Among other things, during the final hour of flights, customers must remain seated, will not be allowed to access carry-on baggage or have personal belongings or other items on their laps," the airline said.

Some airlines were going as far as shutting down in-flight entertainment systems, which include route-tracking maps.

Security measures are unlikely to have a major impact on earnings for this quarter, which will close in less than a week left, but could have longer-term repercussions.

Michael Boyd, president of aviation research and consultancy firm Boyd Group International, said restrictions that include not being able to use laptops for the last hour of the flight could hurt domestic travel, where one hour could be a significant chunk of the entire flight.

Joseph Schwieterman, a professor of urban transportation issues at DePaul University, said the effects of new security regulations will likely be moderate. "There will be some effect, but we don't know how much."

"We again have a combination of a high fuel prices and heavy publicity on terrorism," he said. "That's a disturbing combination."
