Armed Pilot,s
This arguement is going to go on for a long time, the minority who want to be heroe,s and blow the terrorist,s away and save the day, and qualify this absurd situation of armed pilot,s and FO,s , And the majority who find it utterly mindless, it will all come down to a major incident , in which many people,s lives will be at risk, a dedicated nutter/ terrorist will have no problem disarming a person male/female constrained in a harness. If the checks are done on the ground proffessionaly, there is no need for armed pilots it,s a no brainer. some of us on this site gained their education at places with quaint names like Forkhill, Goosegreen, wireless ridge, mostar and a few others. And we value professional attitudes and practical solutions not knee jerk pancho villa tactics and mindset.
