Comments on the clue
1."Of" is unfairly doing double-duty; "initals X" doesn't mean "initials of X" even if X begins with "of"
2.'of' seems to be doing double duty here
3.Letter selection not accurately indicated: initials of obese passengers etc, or similar?
4.cyptic grammar 'of' missing after 'initials' if existing 'of' is being used for its first letter – additional 'o' word needed
5.Well-worked initials
