FFDO firearms

Two pilot guys who have passed background checks, sitting together in a locked room. The 50 people sitting in the room next door all went through a metal detector or more likely an x-ray scan of their bodies/grope down physical search.

Those pilots seem like the least likely people in all of America to need a handgun during the course of their jobs. The FFDO program (as it is), like most other 9/11 reactions, is completely idiotic.

Here's good enough reason for me to allow FFDO's.
 
Do you really think someone is going to hijack a RJ? Or are you just packin' for those BHM and MEM overnights?

Better safe than sorry, dick. God forbid it ever happens again, I hope at least one of the pilots has been through the training and is carrying. It can go from calm to your throat is cut in an instant. Glad you feel the need to make it your lame punchline. The more armed pilots the better.

You are idiotic if you think there are not weapons found that were plantedin aircraft. There are loopholes to have weapons planted. There are undetectable weapons.... You don't even need a weapon! See the above link...

If you are a Federal Flight Deck Officer, please check the FFDO Dashboard immediately for information that you need to meet TSA’s airport operational requirements.

If you have any questions, please call the Federal Air Marshal Service.
 
You're in a LOCKED ROOM and are prohibited from opening the door. An entire RJ full of bloodthirsty savages with razor blades and boxcutters isn't a threat to you.

Give them enough time and I'm not so sure they won't figure out a way in.
