We are starting to establish the basic things you would need to get service started at an airport.

We did sweep the plane and we did find the handgun, and it was a loaded handgun. Once we got that we turned it over to the state police in Boston.

The threat of explosives is very real.

Doing this is a way of adding unpredictability to the screening process in order to deter terrorist attacks.

We're going to look at how effective it is, how efficient it is in the next 30 days. There are several large ferry systems in the United States, and, if this is as effective as we hope it is going to be, it will add to our security system against terrorists.

Just like at the airport, that can happen.
