STC, you are a fool. Even a very few more instances of hijackers downing airliners is a few too much. Would you like to explain those odds to the tens of thousands of children, spouses, relatives and friends of victims on 9/11? And of various other terorrist attacks since and to come. Now is not the time to be complacent.
Most of us Aussie pilots would like to see tasers, rather than guns as standard flightdeck equipment. There could be a safety activation feature requiring a flight specific discreet code entry. The code (similar to sqwak) would be assigned pre-flight. Should the perpetrators ever make it past the pax and the flightdeck door, activate your taser, give them a zap, and once down let the more physically capable pax take them down the back and finish them off.
