No one would be STUPID enough to try this.
He tried to force his way into the flightdeck.
Christopher Egyed, 37, made "threatening comments about the government"
I wonder if he was a Kerry voter...

Oh and a little secret. I get to carry my Sig 226. You bust in the door to my Embraer(small commuter plane), You may get a bullet as a souvineir.

But then again all we carry are the doscile yuppie types anyway.

By his haircut alone they should have known he was stupid and not have let him on the plane.

You DON'T negotiate the control of an aircraft.
Take out one for the needs for the many.


And picking apart my spelling is the best y'all can do?

Kinda looks like a redneck version of Robert Downey Jr.
I could take Sean Connery in a fight... I could definitely take him.

Dude.. A bullet hole in the side of a plane wouldn't do a damn thing. Check a movie/physics/reality site sometime.

edit:

If someone's storming the cockpit of a Shuttle, you've got plenty bad problems already.
