Federal Flight Deck Officers: The airline pilots trained to shoot hijackers
Thousands of US airline pilots carry guns in the cockpit. Why do they do it - and how are they trained? Every year, hundreds of American pilots head to Artesia, New Mexico, to learn new skills. (www.bbc.com) Más...Story has been done about this a decade ago.Journalists need to find original content not rehash stuff that we alredy knew.
Consider the source .......
My guess is thinking is this: If you know a cop is down the street with radar then you won't be inclined to speed. I think the hope is to dissuade people from trying in the first place for fear of collateral damage to pax or plane.
So who exactly thought this was a good idea to leak to the general public....? FFDO was supposed to stay classified.....
