I just happened upon a site with the advisory, I don't recall the "high" alert for aircraft. Did I miss something?

FYI - and please no lectures, I know that this is just their effort to keep us scared, I'm just trying to figure out if something new happened or if this has been the status for some time now.

2. Hi, merh. I think it went up when those nasty liquid bombs
were found in Britain, the ones that were supposed to blow up a bunch of planes.

Odd that; haven't heard a word about this investigation in a long time.

4. Oh, that's what it was`
dang it, I've been on the site plenty of times since then and didn't know the "high" -- maybe my computer's decoder system finally started to work.

Thanks for the response.

They can't tell us anything about those investigations, it's for our own good you know, mustn't know anything more than be scared and it's better to fight them overthere than at home. (If you build it, they will come.)

:hi:

7. I think you are right
I believe for a few days around when that story broke the threat level in the UK for airplanes was raised to the equivalent of red.
