It's unlikely that the exact technique used by al Qaeda on 9/11 will ever be used again. It worked three times in one day, but only because the pilots never in their wildest dreams suspected what the intentions of the hijackers were, and that once they took over the cockpits they would kill the pilots and fly the planes themselves.
That trick is unlikely to work again. Perhaps it would not have worked on 911, if the intelligence services had given prior warning to the pilots.
This seems fairly elementary. Hasn't it occurred to the Senate, or to the media? Or did it happen on clinton's watch?
I can agree after we arm our pilots.

What would they have done? Poked them in the eyes?
I recall some security rules proposed for the airline industry near the end of the Clitton era and I believe Al Bore nixed it for some reason. Do you recall this ?
