CNN is supposed to have a interview with a passenger that was seated in first-class. He should be able to bring some clarity to whether the door opened or not.

If that door opened for any reason during this incident...then security FAILED!

Do you know if this axe is ONLY available in the cockpit, or are there others onboard in the cabin?

Every Boeing and MD large body I have worked on carries one in the cockpit.

Uruguay must be upset that they were not included in the "Axis of Evil" list. Sorry Uruguay, you just didn't make the cut...

A flight attendent hit the passenger with a fire ax? That will teach him not to bring his seat to the full upright position.....

Only in the cockpit. But there's enough other items onboard that are hazardous. Extinguisher bottles will take the oxygen out of you if shot at you (experience) LOL

I hope he ends up being from Iran, Iraq or North Korea. If he is from Saudi Arabia it will just be shrugged off. If he is from the axis of evil....LOOK OUT!

Fox reporting now that co-pilot opened cockpit door and hit the man with the fire axe. Then passengers subdued the man.

WPLG, quoting FBI officials, said a crew member opened the door and the co-pilot hit Morcira on the head with a fire ax.

You bet. Israeli experts have been saying for months that the new security is an illusion to a large degree.

I think pilots should carry guns, if armed agents cannot be on every flight.
