CCLN: Reasonable response, assuredly...but, on speculation; had one pilot in each of the 4 9/11 cockpits had a weapon, might the odds have evened just a little? Possibly? With 4 unarmed cockpits, though, the outcomes were assured.
Might a spirited, armed resistance of just one cockpit have saved one of the Towers...and its occupants?
