If 'suspect liquids' are to be banned from planes - what about alcoholic drinks?
I'd never thought about this until today..... most 'spirits' are about 40% proof & burn REALLY well. Just one match or a lighter and it's blazing infero time.... they wouldn't let you carry 5 or 6 litres of petrol on board or any sharp objects, so why breakable GLASS filled with ALCOHOL!?!?
Never mind the infamous 'shoe bomber' - what about 'booze burners'!

The problem is not burning. It is combining two inert liquids to form a volatile substance, wither a bomb or chemical weapon.
Liquids are not banned from the plane, you just cannot take your own through security.

Glass with any liquid is not allowed at this time. You can buy some on the A/C but what are you going to light it with? Also, It would take a great deal to blow up an a/c. A simple fire could be put out with all the fire fighting equipment on the a/c.

A lot of the booze on planes is in plastic bottles and as you can't take a lighter or matches on board you have nothing to worry about.

Alcohol, toothpaste, make up, hair gel, sun tan lotion, etc. Any liquid basically is not allowed on any aircraft other than medication and one other thing. But it's all posted on yahoo news.

You can still buy drinks from the beverage cart once you're on board, but you can't bring anything on with you.
