Is it possible that they have to inform the other pilot that they are armed? I'd want to know.

[serious] What training programs are available like this? I'm interested in learning more.
My experience with firearms has been limited to my law enforcement training and that's about it. I couldn't imagine someone/company taking on the liability of training civilians to those standards.

In all my time commuting, I've run across those types. Didn't matter if it was a regional or a legacy.
Meh, opinions will vary on who should and shouldn't be selected. There's plenty of cops that wanted to become one because they were tired of getting their a$$ kicked, or feel te need to have to kick peoples a$$es due to this affliction you speak of.
But I've known people that were turned down with mil backgrounds. One was a gaurd pilot, the other was a firearms instructor.

We have a question: Do you want to be a cop, or do you want to appear to be a cop? It's an honest question. A lot of guys just want to appear to be cops. Gun, badge, pretend they're on TV.
Yeah, a lot of people just wanna slam a n word's head through a plate-glass window.

Dude!!!!!! One of my favorite movies!!!!! Wahlbberg was classic in that.
And yeah, that was the FIRST quote that ran through my mind. Although Sheen's accent was a little over the top at times. How would you type it out to accuratetly reflect how he pronouunced it? Kyoppp, kouppp? No clue.........

My Google-fu is failing to produce any evidence on the investigation cited in the article (plenty of hits ca. 22 Mar 2008 re the incident, but no follow-up). Anything published on that? Curious to know the outcome, simply because "the gun went off" stated in most of the articles is nonsense. The trigger was pulled--whether that was the result of mis-handling or of poor procedures is the real question....

TSA is a joke. Period. There is more than one major airport with ZERO keypad locks to the ramp. Anyone getting off a jet can run out to the ramp.
TSA people have too much power for their brain size.

Try Academi. It was originally Blackwater but they were bought out. You got the money, they will train you.

Looks like a great opportunity for people to get a good set of handgun fundamentals.
