I noticed that you have an overly large clock (ie watch) too.

I saw, with my own eyes, a PSA guy who actually did have his ID's on a gold rope chain. This was in the E-gates crew room at PIT back in the day that PSA was flying the 328's.

I reckon that'll save you from the SAM or the plastique that gets smuggled on board?

If you try to make yourself safe from everything, you would never come out from under your bed, so while I acknowledge the SAM threat, no, the clippy tie and breakaway lanyard won't help.

As for the plastique, the tie and lanyard might could make a difference there if said explosive were to be used to blow the latch out of the cockpit door.

I do not find it likely that my 50 seat RJ is high on the list as far as terrorist targets are concerned. However something as simple as not providing a pre-installed leash and/or garrotte to someone who means me harm is an easy precaution.

Secondarily, a long time ago I nearly lost a finger when my wedding ring caught on the windshield frame of a boat. The process of shearing the flesh from the bone was underway when the windshield frame broke. By that token, we do work around machinery. Not that I find it likely to happen, but the clippy tie and the lanyard will prevent my head from being drawn into and crushed by a belt loader.

I don't wear a helmet to protect myself from meteors when I'm cutting my grass, but I do wear a seatbelt when I drive and safety glasses when working with power tools.

Yeah...that final shot would have been money with just a tad more zip on the ball! Great game though...UF is stacked when Kentucky can't race to a lead at home with Florida's best players on the bench...

I really wasn't worried about Jihadists anyway.....It's the FAs that scare me!!

So I can keep my clippy tie and bead-chain lanyard????

Depends on if you want the FA's to be able to lead you around by the neck. For whatever reason, good or bad.

Perhaps the sarcasm didn't come through. Perhaps I am overly comfortable. But the reality is that if they are going to get us, they are going to get us. It just doesn't even cross my mind. Certainly not to the extent that I choose my neckwear based on fear of some jamook choking me in the cockpit.

Like I said, maybe I am to cavalier. I worry more about saving for retirement that terrorists. I let the FFDO dorks worry about that stuff.
