What's better, explosive decompression or a fuel-loaded airplane being

Do you really think that these days that a typical B747 load of people
(over 200) would allow a handful of hijackers to live long enough to try
crashing the plane?

Depends on what country the plane originated from. On an Air France
flight,
the passengers would probably appease terrorists, subdue any Americans on
the plane trying to fight back, and curse the USA all the way into
whatever
target the terrorists had planned for them.

A British Airways flight, maybe not, but I wouldn't expect miracles from
them either.

I would not expect much from a US carrier either. The flight attendents are
all geriatric women, or nancy boys, and most of the US nationals on the
plane are so stupid they dont know what day it is.
(asking whether they need to have their passport stamped going from England
to Scotland. Some smuck will be sitting in his car ready to hand over his
passport at the Scottish and wondering what has happened when no one has
check it.
(asking why they dont speak English in France all the time - doh - maybe its
because they speak French. (I wonder why I could not understand the
accent)).

Believe it or not these are true and I have great fun taking the ****. Again
the "Don't know what the day it is ers" don't understand the joke. Thick as
****.

Have a nice day y'all
