Man Ships Himself Home In Cargo: New Terrorist Trick?

Apparently he didn’t do a lot of research. Took him like 2 days, maybe he though freight went non-stop. I saw the actual box on the news this AM - pretty small. And he brought no food or water…
I’m with Casey on this - how many things are we supposed to worry about? Let’s see, sudden change in a wart or mole, persistent ache in shoulder and upper arm, identity theft, Hillary in 2004…have I left any out?

Actually, you do want to have access to the cargo area from the cockpit. Oftentimes, the cargo needs to be checked, especially if you’re flying livestock. This actually happens more often than you’d think.

The cabin of a purely cargo aircraft is also pressurized for this reason, and to keep sealed packages from bursting.

The news report I saw last night showed a diagram of the cargo plane - apparently the top half/deck of the cargo area was pressurized, while the bottom half wasn’t. He got lucky; his box was put in the top half.
