Should be perfectly ok passing CF cards through the scanners.  Just keep
them away from those magnetic devices for wiping out RFID tags.

The biggest hurdle now for film isn't airport scanners, but the bug-killers
the postal-service uses.  Those things are brutal on film. Even so, if you
are flying with film, put your film in a clear zip-lock and pass it through
seperately on the conveyer belt if they don't allow a hand-check.
Hopefully, the dweeb running the machine isn't machocistic.  (Hey, guys,
look at this!  BZZZZZZZZZT!!!!!)

You know the film is done for when the plastic bag fills with smoke.
