what you're proposing isn't going to happen unless there is total civil war ... and even then I doubt it ... getting pilots armed is next to impossible ... and that makes sense ... you can't have a bunch of citizens shooting on a plane ... how many? 5? 10? 25? ... putting a person on a plane like that makes them effectively air marshals ... why not do it that way?

Pilots were armed just shortly before Sept 11, 2001. I think it was in 1999 when pilots were disarmed by the Clinton administration.
