SYDNEY'S domestic airport was partially shut down after fake bombs hidden in a returned hire car's glove box went undiscovered during an elite military exercise.
According to an investigation report obtained by Fairfax, the mistake sparked a major bomb scare resulting in the partial shutdown of the domestic airport car park on July 4 last year.
The fake bombs were found by cleaners at Hertz rental cars about a fortnight after the car was returned to the airport.
Australian Federal Police bomb disposal experts were called in to examine the fake bombs, with a check of Hertz records revealing the car was one of several vehicles hired for six-and-a-half weeks by the Defence Police Training Centre at Holsworthy Barracks.
An officer from the training centre confirmed the devices were used in exercises for students training to become "close personal protection operatives" or CPPOs, elite military bodyguards.
The Defence Command Support Training Centre and the Army Administrative Inquiry Centre are carrying out independent inquiries into the incident.
