Yet ANOTHER reason our FFDO's need conceal carry!

This is exactly what happens Caveman when an "organization" (insert your own 4 letters) wants something so bad, they're willing to settle for a half-assed implementation. So now, you've got a firearm sitting in the flight deck in a box that is 1. Locked, 2. Unloaded, and 3. Not able to be used quickly.

Again, which defeats the entire purpose of being able to defend yourself quickly and efficiently. Which is the entire reason you brought the friggin firearm to work in the first place!!!!


HELLOOOOO....Mcfly!!! ANYBODY IN THERE......

I've carried a weapon my entire adult life. Mostly related to another occupation. Never did I misplace it. Now my primary responsibility is safe operation of the aircraft. That includes preflight and planning duties. Too many distractions can lead to a misplacement or theft of the weapon. 48 of 50 states allow concealed carry with far less training than the FFDO program. This is just another example of how the politicians and bureaucrats jack up a potentially effective program.

Doesn't matter if FFDO's have open carry or concealed carry. The failures in the system so far have been caused by guys not following the rules/guidelines. There will be just as many failures with open/concealed carry.
