The good news is, the folks in charge of the US FAMs are way ahead of
you and I. This contingency has already been planned and trained,
along with a few hundred other scenarios we can't even imagine.

We had a Northwest flight make an emergency landing here Tuesday because
someone tried to forcefully enter the cockpit. Turned out it was a
drunk woman who wanted to complain to the captain about being denied
more booze. She will remain in Billings recuperating for a lengthy
period of time after nearly being torn limb from limb. We were told by
the local cops that the FA's had to protect her from the passengers.
