Most of the pro gun posters can't see past pulling the trigger!
Given that a (handgun) bullet proof vest can easily be disguised and concealed in hand baggage, the first shot would have to be to the head.
I'm told this is not easy, even at close quarters.
or maybe the bomb sniffing machines can be tuned to detect Kevlar?
Well then, lets run with your thought and see what makes sense:
If your cockpit door gets attacked from the cabin and gives way to reveal a terrorist wearing a bullet proof vest, are you going to prefer (at THAT moment) to be armed or unarmed?
Speaking purely for myself, I think at that moment, i would rather be holding a knife, although at a pinch I guess the crash axe would do. See Kevlar might be fine for turning a bullet-hole into a bruse, but it ( I am told ) doesn't do so well with blades
