Tanks, Rebreather Bottles and Spare Airs May be Confiscated

[Chadwick]

I believe it has always been 'illegal' to bring compressed gasses on board a plane though in 'safer' days it was often overlooked.
However, this is another one of those situations I've seen a lot of lately where everyone raises their voice saying that we need better security then later raises their voice again because they want more privacy or convienience. I love that we live in a country that allows us to have a voice.
We need to understand that we have to give up some of our privacy and convienience in order to have it. The only way I can see that we can have our cake and eat it too is to double ticket prices to cover the additional cost of complexities and a rule structure that will take a good lawyer to understand.
Honestly, I'd rather loose the convienience and ship my tanks or rent them and have one less security risk then have some crazy person hide a bomb in one.
