    You’d still have to control the passengers, and that requires threats and violence. The batteries just bring down the plane, they aren’t the controlling threat.

    And those laptop that are out? More batteries, hand them over.

      Dude you are arguing against yourself… the scenario you described would not, at all, be stopped by current TSA protocols

      Moreover, the bad TV show example about the highjackers threatening the pilots safely locked in the cabin… why would the pilots open or obey when the end result is crashing the plane?

      Open the door or I’ll kill this passenger… but if you open I will kill you, this passenger and the rest…

      Genius logic there
