LAS VEGAS, July 29 (UPI) -- A Web site based in Las Vegas is selling stick-on "Flying Pasties" to shy airline travelers fearful of full-body scanners.

Flyingpasties.com said the products come in a "male bottom" and a three-piece female set designed to conceal the private parts of the wearers from full-body scanners at airports, the South Florida Sun-Sentinel reported Thursday.

However, Transportation Security Administration spokeswoman Sari Koshetz said anything the scanners identify as "an anomaly" results in additional screening, including possible full-body pat downs.

The male pasties start at $9.99 and the female sets start at $16.99.
