RE: Re: OT: Terrorism
As an aside I believe that all US flights must have the cockpit doors
locked
whereas in Europe and the UK this is not a requirement.
For those of you who know me know I never post in the evening. Well I get
the pleasure of helping out my NYC colleagues by working through the night.
Something I dont mind doing if it lets them get some quality time with
their
loved ones. By all accounts NYC is a pretty sombre place right now.
Thanks
Kieran

It is not fact that a locked flight deck would have changed anything. Until
the details surrounding the hijacks are known, it is unreasonable to assert
that a locked flight deck would have changed anything. For all we know, the
flight deck could have been locked when the hijack began as is standard
procedure on many flights today. Assuming it was locked, it is in the first
instance the unlocking of the door which undermines this assertion that a
locked door would stop anything.
