Summer before last I made a round trip from Germany to the US, and I flew back last summer to live (as most of you know), then just made a round trip flight for Christmas.
On all these trips I had some teeney-weenie trimmers for the old cookie duster, no problems.
Last Friday on my return they became a big issue for a few moments
I tried to explain they were always with me, no problem, but with Teutonic logic, I was informed I could mail them for six Euros (they cost me $2 at Wally-World), or not fly! Just how dangerious could they be to a now aware flying public?
Now what if the pilot needed a nose hair trim while in flight, or something? Just think there might be an AA (not that AA) pilot guiding a flight with long harry things hangin' down to God knows where!
Well I gotta go to Wally World and get some new ones.
