Shootout at the OK (cockpit) corral...

Interesting discussion on the Phoenix area radio a few weeks ago.
A UAL Captain calls in (from his mobile phone while driving to the airport) and defends his 'right' to be armed. Radio host asks...'excuse me Captain, but suppose the co-pilot is armed as well, and you have a disagreement with him. What will you do?'

UAL Captain replies...."I would shoot the son of a bitch".

This is exactly what was said, true story. Could not believe my ears.

Personal opinion...armed pilots are a COMPLETE waste of time, period.
