I-FORD,
US bids to give guns to pilots on all flights
The first intelligent proposal I've seen in the last years.
Now I'm waiting to the eurobureaucrats to follow.
I'n not holding my breath though.
If you mean Europe should follow their lead, I'm not sure it's the eurobureaucrats that will be the issue.
Many Americans, and by implication most American pilots, have at least some fire-arm training.
Not many Europeans do, so European pilots may well be very reluctant to adopt the idea.
