That's fine and a good idea...my only point was that punishing the airlines for being a victim of an 'act of war' is over the top...

<More than gas station attendents> Dave, I remain amazed that almost no news organizations are picking up on this.....this WAS the weakest link here. It would have been virtually impossible to carry out this attack w/o the sorry-a$$ cockpit security that the airlines knew was an accident waiting to happen.

We'll never have a building secure enough to prevent a bomb attempt, nor be able to fully prevent a dedicate well-organized suicide bomber, nor prevent every incidence of someone sneaking a weapon on a plane....but waltzing into the cockpit? We should have seen that coming, and this is not monday-morning quarterbacking..

They don't get in the cockpit, and the entire WTC tragedy would have been avoided.
