I was thinking about something like this in flying cars, even before I read that, but I couldn't think of an effective way to get air in fast enough and pu out fast enough to provide the proper thrust. This thing only works at hypersonic speed.

I'm more afraid that what they will find will be too big for the computer to handle, and it will blow up, hurting innocent bystanders.

Seriously though, for the same reason you dont walk around without clothes, I dont want people x-raying under my clothes, it's just an invasion of privacy. I think it's going a bit too far. It's just wrong.

Have you ever flown?
Were you born for 9-11?
If some dude could be stopped before he got onto a plane with a gun to take it over and crash it into a building and kill u and everyone else on the plane plus bi-standards, wouldn't you want it to happen instead of the latter part?
If you don't like being strip searched, by a machine, then don't fly.

I think these are 2 weak to cause cancer unless u do it repeatidly. The ones that they do on you for medical usage actually see inside u, much more powerful
