....bottom line....
If this FFDO had "FOLLOWED PROCEDURE".....because thats what, was and is required......(just like flying our aircraft)...this incident would never have occured........what ever happened,happened below 10,000(sterile cockpit)....and it was not part of the "approved procedure".....
Not interested in argueing the pro,s and cons of pilots and guns,I have already taken a stand on this issue.....but when you are dealing with weapons,whether it be in the cocpit or out of it.....PROCEDURES MUST BE FOLLOWED.....they are put in place to maintain safety.....PB
