ks- a couple of real good reasons--a target of opportunity ( easy target) but you may be missing this angle re: cargo...some cargo is handed off from a cargo departure facility and placed onto a passenger plane. Many reasons for this but the networks ability to get a package where it has to go in ? amt. of time is a key facet...and this facet frightens everybody.
Many expected the tsa to remove the prior four etd approved units on the cargo list much sooner and in sync. with IMSC's unit that was approved on the cargo list. As of right now, the last two units made by Smith's and Morpho must be retooled to remain on the cargo list. They have until 2016 to do so... meanwhile, IMSC is approved ( forgot the date its approval expires but its beyond 2016).
Cargo is a huge market but driven by key gov. approvals for usable products. No approval- no sale. It is also a market that is most stressed over inspections. For example- a pallet of shrink wrapped packages ( wrapped for easy shipping) must be broken down and run past the x-ray machine. This machine does NOT find explosive material, it looks for densities and shapes. When presented with a suspicious item, that item gets a swabbing with an etd unit. I am not certain about the percentage of items that must be swabbed with an etd unit regardless of x-ray disposition but its high ( was 100% but that is unworkable with a swab)

Best of Luck to All IMSC Longs!
