Reply #105: So you're saying

that assuming that 200 passengers wouldn't be able to physically overpower one terrorist is silly? Especially when they know that the alternative is being killed anyway in a forced crash? And yes, terrorists have used planes once before, when passengers were of the mindset to sit by passively and cockpit doors were not secured, neither of which are the case any more. So again, give us a realistic scenario under which those jets would have been necessary.
