Does anyone have experience with non-metallic transtibial prostheses (i.e.
carbon-reinforced socket with direct lamination of carbon foot like
Springlite Advantage DP and sleeve suspension) and airport security? I am
seeing a transtibial amputee who travels frequently (Airline Captain) who is
tired of being “wanded” every time he goes through security.
Thanks,
