Aircraft Clarification
Turin, do you,refer to an Airbus or a Boeing in your email??
My original question related to Boeing...
airbus hatch locking is not necessary as its behind the .flt deck on at least a wide body...
Boeing on the other hand is out in the cabin...
the need to lock this hatch was not precipitated at all by 9/11.. In fact id it had been Boeing would have fitted it to all its aircraft if regulated by TSA/ FAA... Which they do not...
so my question is ... Who decided this was a good idea and if one operator thought it was, why didnt they all think so??
you only have to you tube search B777 E/E Hatch Research to see what I mean..
