Awfer... there went that experiment.
" CHARLOTTE, N.C.-- A gun carried by a US Airways pilot accidentally
discharged during a flight from Denver to Charlotte Saturday,
according to a statement released by the airline...."
Oh that's interesting. I have a friend who opted in to that program. Be
interesting to hear what he thinks about this!
Well he obviously had un-holstered it to point it at a terrorist who
was smashing his way into the cockpit! In this case it was obviously
in the pilot's mind and he needs a reality check. Why don't the
airlines consider disabling terrorists by depressurizing ? Knock
everone out, tie up the bad guys and repressurize?
