OT: For all the complex analysis, sometimes we forget that there are some common sense things we should have done and should now do to at least reduce the risks somewhat:
1. Recognizing (belatedly) that the person in the pilots' seat has the ablility to kill thousands of people at any time, create a secure environment in the cockpit. There are countless examples of parallel situations that could be used as models in jails, prisons, government installations, etc. It should be impossible for people armed only with box cutters and knives to get into the cockpit area.
2. Routinely investigate and monitor immigrants and visa holders for suspicious links to terrorist activities. Apparently U.S. citizens had little or no involvement in the Sept 11th attacks. When in doubt re non-citizens, detain them or deport them!
3. Whoever failed in his/her duty to take action re out-of control airliners should be fired, at the least. The plane that tried to destroy the White House and hit the Pentagon instead, traveled a long way after it left its established flight path without any military response.
