I guess long lines are more worrisome than being able to " get fake weapons and explosives past security screeners 95 percent of the time in 70 covert tests."
WASHINGTON - Facing a backlash over long security lines and management problems, the head of the Transportation Security Administration shook up his leadership team on Monday, replacing the agency's top security official and adding a new group of administrators at Chicago O'Hare International Airport.
In an email to staff members, Peter V. Neffenger, the T.S.A. administrator, announced a series of changes that included the removal of Kelly Hoggan, who had been the assistant administrator for the Office of Security Operations since 2013.
Beginning late that year, Mr. Hoggan received $90,000 in bonuses over a 13-month period, even though a leaked report from the Department of Homeland Security showed that auditors were able to get fake weapons and explosives past security screeners 95 percent of the time in 70 covert tests."

but one could argue that a 95% "miss rate" for 'fake weapons and explosies' may be OK.
What was the miss rate for REAL weapons and explosives? I think that's the more cogent question.
;-)
all the best,
mrh
but (not surprisingly) that data hasn't been released, or leaked!
Not yet.
