Australian pilots' licences are to be upgraded to make them more difficult for terrorists to fake, authorities said yesterday. The new cards will feature "embedded images that cannot be tampered with".

Good idea.

I'm all for anything that thwarts terrorists & criminals. However, measures like this have not stopped them before & are unlikely to solve anything. IMHO

It won't prevent IDs being stolen which I believe is increasing at a frightening rate. Using a pilot's identity would enable any criminal to apply for a genuine licence & other official documents.

Anyone want to buy an Australian Pilots licence??

I 've only got 100 left!!!

Good idea, lets keep it safe!

If in doubt: Drive up the middle!!! You'll soon find out which side to take.

Just don't forget to zig before the other fellow zags

Good point,Doug.
