Idea to prevent plane hijack
GGW Air?
Seriously, clothes hide ugly people's flesh, protect from cuts and burns during a crash if the fabric is chosen properly and can hide weapons. Totally safe airline... passengers sedated, nude, boxing gloves locked on hands and feet. No alcohol served, no smoking, no matches or lighters. All passengers in zip lock bags to prevent DNA contamination, Toilets removed from airplanes and passengers required to remain belt in their seats until removed by baggage handlers. Should increase sales of Cessna and Beech aircraft. -- The people think the Constitution protects their rights; But government sees it as an obstacle to be overcome. some support http://www.usdoj.gov/olc/secondamendment2.htm See http://www.fija.org/ more about your rights and duties.

Idea to prevent plane hijack
It would speed up screening as long as the screeners were
gay/lesbian and lesbians inspected men and gay men inspected women. But I can see delays several hours long if straight men have to screen college girls and actresses. Of course boob-jobs could include pockets and they could do kangaroo pouch add-on surgery. But even nude/naked people could hide explosives internally by swallowing C4, like they do with high price drugs, or even plastic explosive surgery. How many pounds of C4 can a 120 pound skinny terrorist have packed into biceps and six-pack?

Sure, 1873 45 Colt, S&W No. 3, or a modern S&W with full moon clips in 45 ACP. BTW, does anybody know the lethal; weapon provided to all passengers compartments on every airliner today? There are dozens of these lethal impact weapons provided. Pillows (but you said impact, so that's not what you're thinking of). You could also strangle somebody with the demonstration seatbelt, and bash their brains out with the portable oxygen system for the cabin crew. I don't think the seat cushions are hard enough to break things with or soft enough to be very good for smothering. -- David Dyer-Bennet, , http://www.dd-b.net/dd-b/ RKBA: http://www.dd-b.net/carry/ Pics: http://dd-b.lighthunters.net/ http://www.dd-b.net/dd-b/SnapshotAlbum/ Dragaera/Steven Brust: http://dragaera.info/ |

Idea to prevent plane hijack
all they need is an aircraft radio and they can talk with the pilot and
anyone else they feel like talking to. "neo" wrote in message oups.com... Separate cockpit and passengers by wall with no door, no window, just plane wall. No mechanism of communication whatsover with cockpit from passenger area. That will discourage hijacker because whatever he do, pilot will not know. When terrorists know that even flight staff can not talk to pilot, it is futile to attempt hijack. |

But it's against the law to operate a radio transmitter on board a commercial aircraft! That'll certainly stop them. "neo" wrote in message oups.com...

You came close, think nun-chucks and seat belt extenders.

Idea to prevent plane hijack
Would require major redesign of lavs, etc.
I think the reinforced doors are sufficient. I can think of two deterrents against hijackers: 1. Violent manuevers. Warn that everyone should strap in, if the hijackers don't they will get tossed about. 2. Quit pressurizing the main cabin. You want O2? Sit in your seat and grab a mask. This would only work above, say, 15K feet. Also I understand there are portable bottles for the FAs, still it might work. Obviously these are last resort, but with the reinforced doors nowadays to slow down attackers, the above could gain some advantage. |

I can think of two deterrents against hijackers: Reinforced doors is what killed the passengers aboard the cyprius jet because the crew lost consciousness and the only person still conscious abord was not able to get into the cockpit until the engines ran out of fuel and the magnet that kept the door locked lost power. It was too late to rescue the plane at that time. The re-enforced doors may be a good *idea* but they were implemented in a rush without really thinking through all of the implications. Consider the Egyptair 767. Without the re-enforced doors, the captain was able to get into the cockpit and at least attempt to prevent the co-pilot from ditching the plane. Had there been re-enforced doors, there would have been 0 hope. |
