I'd go further than that. I still believe that anyone authorized to carry a gun (federal, state or pvt citizen) should be allowed to carry a weapon on commercial flights. The only stipulation (as it is now), each armed individual needs to know where every other armed individual is sitting. BTW, I'm not authorized to carry.

There is a proposal for just that. The requirements to carry onboard an aircraft are 1. A CCW permit, 2. Frangible ammunition, 3. Self-training by reading a pamphlet, 4. Some secret means of identification to other legal carriers.
I posted the link earlier, but can't seem to find it.
In the meantime, this is a good site: Project: Safe Skies
