To curb hijacking, which one among the following security measures have not been recommended by the International Air Transport Association (IATA) ?
Explanation
The International Air Transport Association (IATA) has historically advocated for a set of security measures to prevent hijacking and unlawful interference in civil aviation. These measures include the screening of all passengers and their hand luggage before they enter the sterile departure area, ensuring direct communication links between screening points and the airport police or security control room, and the mandatory wearing of identification badges by all personnel with access to the airport's restricted areas.
Regarding observation viewpoints or decks that overlook the airside, IATA's specific recommendation is that they should be closed or entirely glassed-in to prevent the transfer of weapons or prohibited items to the airside. Because the specific recommendation is for closure or total physical isolation rather than simply being "well protected" (which implies they remain open but guarded), option D is the measure not recommended in the form stated.
