Hmm. Since indeed very recently an airplane over Greece (?) lost
both pilots, it's definitely not an impossiblie scenario. If there
isn't a procedure in place (and apparently there isn't, since that
plane crashed with a poor flight attendant in the cockpit), why the
heck not?
The Helios accident raises the question of whether or not securing the
cockpit in such a paranoid way is worthwhile. Which is more likely:
pilot incapacitation or hijack? It's an interesting question. If you
protect against one, you leave yourself open to the other.
The Helios flight crashed because nobody could get into the cockpit
until the engines ran out of fuel
No, it didn't, moron..
