I opened a new thread with this comment last night and it’s disappeared, I’m assuming because the moderator binned it. If he did, I can only assume he misunderstood what I was saying, because I was quite serious in my comment.
Airline procedures will have to change after the WTC hijackings – and I hope I don’t hear of any of the details here, gents.
However, the most effective anti-hijacking weapon of the future is staring us all in the face – our passengers. What’s going to happen the next time someone tries to hijack an aircraft? 300 self-appointed ‘sky marshals’ will leap upon the people involved and quite probably save the courts a lot of money. Unfortunately, I can see this occurring when a misunderstanding is all that’s occurring.
