"28th. You forgot a combination:
6 terrorist without firearms = 6 terrorists unable to enter cockpit because of armed pilot."

Which leads to another combination. 2 dead terrorists, 2 unarmed and now dead pilots. 4 previously unarmed terrorist now armed with dead pilots guns.
Do you honestly believe that in any "god fobid" future terrorist attack that they would go aboard unarmed? They would be sat on by the fattest woman before they got 10 feet.
What about the pilots firearm training? Would it be a refresher course every 6 months shooting at bits of cardboard? Or would it be a training scenario where 6 unarmed men storm the cockpit and see how long it takes to disarm the pilots?
This is a very interesting topic with endless "what ifs".
