Hi Bibi, et al,
When I trained with all three of my dogs at both GDB and GDA, it was 
recommended the harness not be removed during security screening at an 
airport.  It was recommended to put your dog in a sit-stay with a long 
leash.  You go through the metal detector first, then call your dog through. 
Then you were both wanded.  The process was always smoother than I thought 
it might be.
Best,
Nat and Liam Joshua
