So lets suppose that someone, oh say Al-Qaeda manages to highjack
a 747 inbound for Auckland. This is discovered when they are 30
minutes from touchdown or impact or whatever it is they are planning
to do.
What does the NZ DOD plan to do about it these days?

IBM






The plan is to sit down and calmly negotiate with the inbound
terrorists is a loving, trusting and supporting atmosphere where an
open and free exchange of feelings is encouraged.

If there isn't a supportive negotiator on the flight, the in flight
telephones are a cost effective alternative. In this way - a
mutually acceptable solution can be achieved without the need for
expensive or obsolescent weapon systems.

No? Well...um, this is kinda awkward. I guess you all are kinda' mad at
us...hey, you guys see 'The Lord of the Rings' movies? Those were good,
right? We made 'em right here. What say you don't attack and we'll see if
we can get you passes to the Return of the King shoot? Please?"
