![]() Paul On Topic to please you. If the rag head pilots can't get in cockpit, how can they pull off another 7-11?

They've got my vote. And what makes you think that anything that has been done in terms of aircraft hardening has been a reasonable preventive measure? The failure of 9/11 was not access to the cockpit, but the policy of doing what the hijackers wanted to avoid bloodshed. Any of the pilots, had they understood what was going to happen in that case, could have prevented the eventual outcome by performing abrupt maneuvers or in sacrificing their planes and the lives of those on the plane if they knew what was going to be the outcome. I don't think that a 9/11 kind of attack on the plane will ever have a significant chance of succeeding again. It was truly a one shot deal. |

Not only that, but the first hijacker through the cockpit door gets a splitting headache from the crash axe! |
