Use your knowledge from the last nine weeks to produce a threat assessment, along with at least one countermeasure for each threat you define. Make sure to choose departure and arrival airports large enough, yet small enough, to satisfy the assignment.
Imagine that you are the pilot in this hypothetical scenario, and you are responsible for ensuring an international dignitary departs and arrives safely from and to both airports of your choice. You may refer to your notes, textbook, course discussion boards, and other resources (reference appropriately) to complete this assignment, but you may not consult with other students/classmates regarding your threat assessment. Submit a 3-4 page threat assessment, in no particular format, inclusive of two maps, one map a page, (departure airport, and arrival airport maps).
