"About a year ago a pilot on an Egyptian Airliner struggled with his co pilot before crashing the plane into the ocean. At least there was a chance that the offending pilot could have been wrestled away from the controls. If a pilot shoots his co pilot to death what chance is there. I am sure others may dismiss this opinion, but you asked for my thoughts and that is what came to mind when the suggestion first came up."

Good point. We will never be completely safe. Although, in the case of the WTC-911 tragedies. A gun in the cockpit would have save MANY if not all the 7,000 lives that were lost. I still can't grasp fully the scale of that loss.

I really dont think it is necessary. Beef up the bulkheads and the pilot is NOT allowed out of the cockpit for any reason. Also, install knock-out gas lines in the passenger compartment that is activated by the pilot.
