Staff at Manchester airport, terminal 2, say the x-ray machine takes a black and white picture of each passenger which is then examined by a security officer, before being deleted. The new machine speeds up the security process as it does not require passengers to remove coats, shoes or belts. Travellers who do not like the idea can instead opt for the traditional frisking procedure.
