Aircrafts flying without a mandatory security system:
In spite of the exceptionally high threat to aviation security, a large number of aircraft operating in India are flying without a mandatory security system that allows pilots to watch what is happening outside the cockpit while in flight, official sources said today.
The United States announced new security measures today to replace the mandatory screening of air travelers from 14 countries that had angered some allies when it was imposed after a failed bombing on Christmas Day.
