I'm afraid a 6G manoeuver is simply not possible on the FBY aircraft because the flight computers will not let you do that. You have to start frowing off computers to be able to do that which will give you additional problems. And as previously stated most people simply don't have the correct training to start doing such excessive manoeuvers, nevermind the actual stress imposed on the aircraft. Personally I believe that a "secure" cockpit door will give the flight crew the time required to start depressurizing the aircraft and divert. I remember reading a suggestion by a colleague that they should mandate all aircraft be equipped with a cylinder of "sleeping" gas in the cabin that can be fired from the cockpit. Not a bad idea at all along with a secure cockpit door.
Imagine at the first sign of trouble we pull out the "highjacking checklist"
Oxygen masks...............On
Cabin Agent................Discharge
ATC........................Notify
Not a bad idea at all, much better in my mind than carrying guns and having to resolve hand to hand combat onboard. Press the button and everyone goes to lala land for half an hour.
