411A, good point. Although i notice your from the US. Have a look at this another way. Captain and crew refuse to operate flight becasue they are not happy with some armed 'expert' on there aircraft. Beancounter says byebye to crew, don't pass go, don't collect £100. Another crew does exactly the same....suddenly a certain airline is loosing lots of crews which it is struggling to keep together at the best of times...1.Crew/Pilots all refuse to operate flights, and go on strike. Airline looses millions. 2. Company gets rid of all 'unruly' staff. Suddenly company have a big problem!
Balpa says No armed marshals. Airlines agree. Someone is not going to be happy. Oh ofcourse, the US gov.
Expedite.
