...have in mind an alternative approach. One key element would be to institutionalize European development and establish totally new structures on a Pan-European basis, naturally with the U.S. and Canada actively involved. Another would be to synchronize the political and disarmament processes with the pace of German unification, or at least link them as closely as possible. Incidentally, in our view, this synchronization is one of the main functions of the "two plus four" mechanism ((the current negotiations among the wartime Allies -- the U.S., Britain, France and the Soviet Union -- plus the two Germanys...
...airports, New York City's Kennedy and Miami International, and plans to require U.S. airlines to purchase 150 of them, at a cost of $175 million.

The report blamed Pan Am's "seriously flawed" security system for loading an apparently unaccompanied suitcase containing a plastic explosive into the cargo hold of the New York...
Experience indicates otherwise. Pan Am Chairman Thomas Plaskett placed advertisements in U.S. newspapers to complain that Pan Am and other U.S. airlines are losing business overseas as travelers switch to the less security-conscious foreign carriers. Richard Lally, vice president for security at the industry's Air Transport Association, said that such rules in the U.S. would have a "disruptive impact on air travel." Yet superscreening may be appropriate when there are specific, credible terrorist threats...
