"We are talking about a flashlight here."
Yep, a special flashlight that can be used as a weapon, and airport security knows it as well as you do. And what is your need for a flashlight on an airplane? Do you think the lights are going to go out?
Sure, you can buy an identical item in the destination country. You can buy a knife or box cutter in England, but that doesn't mean you can carry one on a plane.
