CNN: Atlanta, Georgia (CNN) -- Canadian authorities are investigating an "unbelievable" incident in which a passenger boarded an Air Canada flight disguised as an elderly man, according to a confidential alert obtained by CNN.
The incident occurred on October 29 on Air Canada flight AC018 to Vancouver originating in Hong Kong. An intelligence alert from the Canada Border Services Agency describes the incident as an "unbelievable case of concealment."
"Information was received from Air Canada Corporate Security regarding a possible imposter on a flight originating from Hong Kong," the alert says. "The passenger in question was observed at the beginning of the flight to be an elderly Caucasian male who appeared to have young looking hands. During the flight the subject attended the washroom and emerged an Asian looking male that appeared to be in his early 20s."

Trancecoachthe asian guy was the old guy in disguise, who, in turn, was a middle aged hispanic woman named Rita.
StormsingerHow in the hell is this "unbelievable"? Have these people not watched movies in thirty years?
Latex makeup and masks are nothing new, nor are they hard to obtain or use.

Agreed. Seems to me like fail on the part of airport security and CNN
westyI fucking hate the news what a bunch of amiture shit .
baning on about securty thret i mean fucks sake load of stupid shit , what about the real issue why is it that sumone has to go to this effort to get out of a country ?
Its not realy that clever this technoligy has exsited for years , and when u have shit loads of people geting on planed every hour its not suprizing that this can work.
I fucking hate all this bullshit terror crap that the news reports at every opertunity , more people die from alchole , car accidents cused by bad road maintence/pore vehical laws , obcity , work place mall practice , rediculouse foghen policy, than are and pribably ever will be kille by terrorists.
I mean fucks sake evan when the IRA were bombing the fuck out of london it wasent that bad.
allso we are suposed to belive that we are in some sort of super dangerouse terroist times yet no bombs have gone off and all through history we know the goverment and secret services to be failry incompitent and over streched when it comes to stoping this sort of thing .
so eather the goverment has gotten shit hot at stoping this sort of thing , or which is more likely the case the actualy thret is minimal , it seems all the terroist activity including 911 is generaly done by random Nut jobs and thats as likely to be mental people in the country as people outside of it.
In the end im sure that most people can think of ways you could bring a country to a stand still evan ways that would do no harm to life but would cripple a city finacaily and there is no way to stop this from hapaning.
I hate the Idoicy of the news making general socity more and more stupid.
Just got to pray to allah that kids get on the internetz and that the internetz isent shut down / curpted by coperate intrest thats the only hope we have for a non retarded future.

MarineGunrockGreat. Not everyone will have to be pinched going through security.
notarobotTell CNN to go back to their own country, and to stop trying to monger fear about mine.
If they did any research, or watched news that was reported by people who do, then they would have seen this video:
