WOMAN TAKES WW2 BOMB ON JET
The woman tried to board the plane with a live shell in her hand luggage
Friday September 26,2008
A BRITISH woman sparked the evacuation of an entire airport when she tried to board a plane with a bomb in her hand luggage.
Security guards spotted the live Second World War shell on the scanners as she boarded a Ryanair flight at Bergerac, in the Dordogne.
Bomb squad officers destroyed the shell in a controlled explosion, while 1,000 passengers and staff were evacuated from the terminal.
The woman, 55, said she had bought the 37mm explosive in a secondhand shop as a present for her husband, who collected military memorabilia.
A French policeman said: She told us she had no idea that taking a military shell through airport security would cause such a fuss.
