"fly with tools"
sounds like a good way to kill a vacation ...
better plan ... don't even read the list and just plan on leaving all tools at home!

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming
WOW!!! What a Ride!
Forget the primal scream, just ROAR!!!
Dang, you can carry a screw driver less than 7" in length. Hmmmmm.....
Can't do any damage with that, now can we?

the last thing they'd want is some board passenger dismantling the plane or looking into why it works or trying to do in flight remodels and modifications..

You don't have to throw a battery away from the laptop.
People use them on aircrafts. Unless they had a Piffiny...... LOL

Hey, yes on the computer and cordless tools. The cordless tools have to be checked on. The laptop can be carried on or checked but seeing how baggage handlers take such great care to avoid damaging luggage, I would carry mine.

I read the list...
all I could think was "you can't be serious"
gotta go back and find out about fishing tackle...
WTB billies, fillet knieves and gaffs are no-no's... and huge hooks..

Excuse me, do you mind me bringing this hand grenade aboard you aircraft?

Yep.
Two groups get stopped for that. National Guard types deploying wearing LBE (usually those are the blue trainers, but don't try and convice a TSA employee).
Second group, SWAT guys flying to training facilities with raid gear in a "go" bag.
Watching TSA react to discovering inert training grenades with inert fuses is almost as much fun as the too-casual way they handle a MultiBurst flashbang . . . Occupational hazard of my occupation not being around (sorry Bubba)

That would be funny, especially if they didn't know who they were.
I once loaded one of my Aunts cigarettes with one of those explosives. True story! Before 9/11 of course, couldn't even imagine doing it now! She just happened to needed to go and pick someone up at our airport here in Mobile.
I loaded more than one earlier hoping to one go off. No dice. But I heard about it when they got back. ROAR!
Auntie was inside burning one when the when all of a sudden all sh!d broke lose, the cig blew up, people scattered, police or security guards came running.
She was as nervous as a cat on a hot tin roof when she pulled another out and lit it........... LOL
I wouldn't do that to my worst enemy right now but back then as a teen........
That was funny!
By the way she was not too happy about the situation at all if ya'll were even remotely interested!

And some of the pryo is less-readily identifiable, which can make risk assessment very problematic.
Not as problematic as that "Dear Chief" letter afterwards. The one that goes, "Dear Chief, after flying off to that training the taxpayers paid for, I lost [department property] by forgetting to put in the checcked baggage . . . "Occupational hazard of my occupation not being around (sorry Bubba)

Sadly, yes.
TSA had to increase budgets to allow for more of the big trashcans, and for storage locker space for some of the odder items (lanterns, chainsaws, other fuel-driven items). Some airports actually auction off the collected items, just to help "pay" for storing them.Occupational hazard of my occupation not being around (sorry Bubba)
kept reading the list...
kept saying....
no way!!!
be for real!!!
why would...........!!!!
mumbled a few other oddities....
after all is said and done and you have yur eyebrows back down where they belong.....
and ya think ya finally got a handle on things...
along comes another sign carrier...
and we start all over again....

I heard about this the other day and gotta admit that it has me baffled. If it's about using batteries to power an explosive device, then why only limit Li batteries? Isn't a DC voltage the same from a Ni-Cad, or Akaline battery? - lol
