Well whats the worry to people in the Terminal if its out on the tarmac, its fallen off a baggage trolly or a air side worker has not loaded it aboard an Aircraft, common practise when I worked for Qantas years ago.[/quote]

Probably because the package was vibrating and was warm, two unusual features from a cold cargo hold. If it had been explosive with fuelled aircraft around, could be a good explosion.

Maybe,but if you watched the TV video, they were place out behind the tail, the AC had arrived and would have minimal fuel on boad, plus a explosion would be pushed outwards from the building, ive worked on the tarmac for Qantas for many years and are aware of the dangers, we were trained for them.

All valid comments above, however, there were far greater reasons for the upset the boxes created.

Some things are best left alone
