I've got to say that the ending was okay, the good guys unhurt and the bad guy chose his way out. This wasn't a great thing, of course, but nothing that would make me want to give up any fundamental freedoms or pursuits of happiness. Stuff happens in this world and we need to not over react. [:/]

Think I need to add a holster to my jumpsuit?:S:D

Nah, we just need to publicize how little fuel we usually have on board.

Sure would be nice if we didn't. Not holding my breath though. [:/]

When Dave Grossman told us that we should get a concealed license, and carry a gun on us at all times, I never thought one of those times would be skydiving.

AAD: On
Pilot Chute: Cocked
Pin Check: Complete
Three 3's Check: Complete
Gun: Loaded and Holstered

I'm betting we'll be the first to develop helmet holsters ;)

Skydiving: You either learn from other's mistakes, or they'll learn from yours.

A gun for skydivers? That's all?! How 'bout a grenade?

You have a special handle that cuts away a grenade concealed between your butt cheeks. When hijacker orders the pilot to jump and everybody is out of the plane, you pull that handle and jump. Astalavista, baby!

Crap, I cut the thumb break off my favorite holster. Now I gotta get some kind of strap on there or my SIG will get more freefall than I do. :S:D
Lanyard or bungee strap;)
You are not now, nor will you ever be, good enough to not die in this sport (Sparky)
