I doubt that flash memory like CF cards will be harmed by any
electrical or magnetic field you could encounter at an airport.
But the ultra-fine wires and other metal parts in the cards
might set off the metal detectors. In any event it probably pays
to play it safe and let the cards go through the x-ray machine
along with your camera.
