Question

i am contracted to train some security personnel to work at an international airport in my country. i need new ideas.

Answer 1

Having worked US Airport baggage security, post 9/11, I can speak on this issue.
If you don't have access to high-tech equipment to detect explosives, such as ETD's or X-Ray scanners, then you MUST physically inspect the baggage.
Ideally you should inspect 100%, but this is unrealistic. Inspect as many as posible, randomly, as well as using profiling and suspicious behavior observation.
Have the passenger present for the inspection, however it is imperitive that once the bag is taken into security custody, no one else, even the owner may handle it in any way. As they watch from across the table, begin by examining the exterior of the bag. Then do all outside pockets. Finish with the interior. Secure the bag in the passenger's presence, and transfer to the airline. Once the bag has been screened, it must not be allowed into the possesion of anyone else until it gets on the plane. Use of a specially colored zip seal is a good way to show that it has been screened, and show that it hasn't been tampered with. Teach your screeners to look and feel for unusual bulges, and seems that appear tampered with. Many IED's are hidden inside linings. They must also open and inspect all interior items, of course. This should be done last, just before the bag is closed and zip-sealed. Hope this helped.
