Just playing Devil's wotsit here, "the penalty for guessing wrong is death".
Right. So. They grab someone randomly. The air marshal draws his gun
for issuing said penalty. He's identified. The other 3 terrorists then get
the gun off the air marshal.

I don't have an opinion on this, just thought I'd throw that in! In reality
I
would guess that the air marshal wouldn't draw his weapon if the attackers
were unarmed, and the penalty wouldn't be death.


Agreed, that is why I prefer simply letting passengers with Concealed Carry
Permits carry anywhere, including airplanes. Thatg way there is no way for a
terrorist to know how many are on board, who they are, and if all have revealed
themsleves in response to a provocation.
