Excellent post.

My only suggestion would be that at the beginning of each flight the captain should tell the passengers that in the event of hijacking he is ordering every passenger to make every effort to kill the hijacker by any means necessary.

I know that would make me feel confident that I had a captain I could count on!

Do the 6G positive maneuver, or call all able bodied men forward, but please not both at the same time!;) Good article!

Actually, I disagree. The hijacker(s) should be attacked until they stop resisting. If they're still alive at such point, belts can be used to restrain them. By killing them, you give them the martyrdom they want. By keeping them alive, they may be able to sing for an interrogator.

Having them dead may be satisfying but alive they're of much greater intelligence value.
