Has anyone heard the stories from airline pilots of 767 aircraft about
the placement of the unlock switch for the mandated "Taliban Doors"?

On at least one aircarrier, they are next to the fuel cutoff switches.
Care to guess how many times the wrong switch has been flipped after
they were first installed?


Interesting side-note to the new doors, Ralph Nader and his Raiders
proposed improved doors back in 1987 but the airlines balked.
