Critics who have long complained that airport security measures are mostly "security theater" have given a recent aviation gun-smuggling drama poor reviews. On Dec. 10, while 1.7 million other passengers were being routinely screened for weapons at security checkpoints in airports around the country, the authorities say that a man carrying a backpack containing 16 firearms with ammunition flew aboard a Delta Air Lines passenger jet to Kennedy International Airport in New York from Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport.

ROUGH CUT STORY: A Delta Air Lines baggage handler has been charged on Tuesday with helping another man smuggle 18 handguns onto a flight from Atlanta to New York City, in a scheme that prosecutors said ran for years and also involved assault weapons. Eugene Harvey, 31, has been charged with helping a former Delta employee, Mark Quentin Henry, avoid detection of the guns by airport security on Dec. 10 before Henry boarded a passenger jet with the firearms in a carry-on bag, court records show.
