Overview: The 9/11 Commission found that Al Qaeda operatives exploited known weaknesses in U.S. aviation security to carry out the terrorist attacks of September11, 2001. The paper reveals that the 9/11 Commission issued several recommendations designed to strengthen aviation security by: enhancing passenger pre-screening; improving measures to detect explosives on passengers; addressing human factors issues at screening checkpoints; expediting deployment of in-line baggage screening systems; intensifying efforts to identify, track, and screen potentially dangerous cargo; and deploying hardened cargo containers on passenger aircraft.
