it?

Depends. Can anyone deputize Ron?

Actually, I'd feel safer if everyone on the plane had one.

Reagan Nat'l Airport Reopening to Private Planes

Tuesday, May 24, 2005
WASHINGTON - Private planes will be allowed to take off and land at Reagan
National Airport (search) for the first time since Sept. 11, 2001,
...snip...

In 90 days, the plan would allow 48 flights into the airport a day. Their
crews will have to have their backgrounds checked and an armed law
enforcement officer will have to be on board, the people said.





Statistically, one armed law enforcement officer in so many (I don't know
how many) is a rogue. Is that any less of a threat than one passenger in so
many (I don't know how many) being a terrorist?

Would I feel safer in a 12-pax corporate jet where 1 person (who I don't
know) has a gun, or in one where nobody has a gun?

I'd feel safer if I had my gun. :-)
