Mirabel Airport (YMX) holding an Air Show May 25/26th CF-TCC will be in attendance. . Laptop travellers beware of new hustle - A new and widely practiced hustle aimed at travellers with laptops is afoot. As laptop passengers approach the metal detector, two hustlers stand in front of the passenger. When the passenger places the laptop on the conveyor belt, one hustler moves quickly through the detector, while the other sets off the alarm and begins to slowly empty pockets. As confusion reigns, the first hustler takes the portable and speeds off into the crowd. Delay placing your laptop on the conveyor belt until you are sure to be the next passenger through the detector. - Computer World Canada. .
