Think of all the dark strips on the seat cushion fabric...

Visualizing all of the passengers nude was bad enough, and quite a
disturbing picture.

Now, you have taken it to the next step....
Too far!!!

Sick. Yuck!

Per "Jim Macklin" :
Motorcycles
crash at high speed and properly dressed riders live to heal
and ride again.

Maybe it's semantics... but when I hear "crash" I think of impact - as opposed
to just going down at speed and sliding to a stop.

Right. Riders that stop suddenly in a motorcycle crash, are nearly always
killed instantly. If they slide, they live, unless they hit something while
sliding.

Also, given that motorcycles seldom erupt into a fireball, that also helps
survival rates, compared to airplanes.

Speed also has a good bit to deal with survival. Airliners that crash at
flight speeds, or even half of that, are likely to have 8 times the kinetic
energy, or more, than a motorcycle.

But then we both know that Jim was just being argumentative, right?

After the Twin Towers got hit it took how long.... 45 minutes? for the
passengers in the plane that went down in Pennsylvania to catch on.

How would they catch on? Was the plane equipped with TVs?

If not, I wouldn't have expected those passengers to catch on at all.

cell and air phones.

Cell phone conversations with people who were watching via TV.

Separate cockpit and passengers by wall with no door, no window, just
plane wall. No mechanism of communication whatsover with cockpit from
passenger area. That will discourage hijacker because whatever he do,
pilot will not know.

When terrorists know that even flight staff can not talk to pilot, it
is futile to attempt hijack.

-Heck, just require that all passengers take a nice big bite of bloody meat
as they board...

Muslim terrorists don't like that idea all too well because it means they
don't get the 70 virgins...among other things...
