The structure of an A/C is designed to flex, expand, & contract as the A/C

There are a few places a "Very High Velocity Bullet" of large caliber could
possibly exit the external skin if it the internal point of impact was at a
"very specific angle, very close to 90 degrees to external skin" if fired
from close range internally. Consider all the materials described above a
bullet would have to impact/penetrate, without its path being diverted by
some degree of ricochet.


Really? I saw a movie in the 1960s where a guy with a .38 revolver
tried to shoot another pax on an airliner (I think it was a DC-7), and
he missed and the slug went through the cabin wall and hit an engine and
set it on fire. :-]


Was that the 1 with the promotion for "Scenic Florida Vacation Property at
+/- 2' sea level" as a "Promotional Trailer"?


It happened on a flight from San Francisco to Hawaii. :-)
