Aviatrix on Guns In The Cockpit

It’s always the same story ! As soon as I’m away from the Internet for a couple of days (more on this later), interesting event do occur. If you missed it, a gun got fired on a US Airways flight. Gun on board ? Yes, one of those pilots can legally carry if they want and are trained for.

Many blogs already related these facts, so I won’t bring my two cents. Aviatrix from Cockpit Conversation made a particularly good job on this issue. The two posts on her blog not only tell facts, but they also contains lot of research and complementary information. No wonder this feed is on top in my reader…
