The article from News10 discusses the increasing incidents of stowaways on airplanes, particularly those hiding in the landing gear compartments, which raises significant concerns about aviation security. It highlights several recent cases, including a tragic incident where a man's body was found in the landing gear of a flight from Gambia to Brussels, and another where a stowaway survived a flight from Guatemala to Miami. These events underscore the dangers to both the stowaways, who face extreme cold and lack of oxygen, and the potential security risks they pose. The article also mentions the challenges in preventing such occurrences due to the vast number of flights and the difficulty in securing every part of an aircraft. Security experts and aviation authorities are now reevaluating measures to enhance security protocols, focusing on better detection technologies and increased vigilance at airports to mitigate these risks.
