Multiple Choice Quiz

Today, instead of prognosticating the future of Southwest Airlines as it is caught up in a public relations nightmare surrounding last week's record $10.2 million by the FAA for failing to inspect some of its aircraft last year, or discussing the ongoing drama that is unfolding in the mainstream media and their coverage of the issue, I thought I'd cover another aviation news story that caught my attention this week. It involves two Italian women, a dead body and airport security. Here's a one-question multiple-choice quiz for you: Question: Two Italian women are stopped by airport security in Germany after security agents spot evidence of human remains in a suitcase passing through an X-ray machine. What happens next? A. The agents allow the women to board their next flight after the women show security agents a death certificate for the body in the suitcase. B. Gunther von Hagens contacts the women and asks if they would like to donate the human remains to be part of his Body World exhibit. C. The women are arrested and charged with two counts of mutilation and one count of illegal transportation of a corpse.
