But the "not speaking Arabic" thing won't persuade them, they'll say "remember Richard Reid, the shoe bomber?"

A single terrorist won't try to commandeer a plane regardless of what language he speaks. The language is just supporting evidence.

I agree with the other comments on the thread that a hijacking of any type is unlikely given the changes in procedures. More likely they would just blow them up if they targeted planes at all.
