AA 1683 flight...was struck by lightening, and during my read, I noticed that the attendants asked for someone to get a knife to "cut the ceiling panel".
I was just thinking that that AA flight had someone carrying a knife, which in comparison to nowadays, is unheard of. I find it quite interesting that even that person carrying a knife had no intention of killing anyone or taking the crew hosage, and it annoys me that just because of those "9/11 attackers", peoples' freedom(i think thats the word im meaning to use) has been lost. EG: Visiting the flight deck, and taking toe nail clippers with you
Those "privelages" have been lost.
