Sorry, but if someone hijacked a plane with boxcutters, you can bet your ass they would get rushed to the floor. No one's willing to die over some moron with a razor blade. Get a few slices in your arm or... die in a burning inferno? Hmmm..

I see what you are saying Stompy, but nonetheless, in a pre-9-11 world, when terrorists are telling you that there is also a bomb on board...that you will be fine if you just wait it out...most people would assume that this is a "standard" hijacking....
I dont think this type of takeover would ever work again in the US as people know the ruthlessness of the Hijackers now, and at least some of them would be willing to give themselves to save others...
It was a different situation on the morning of 9-11...things changed after that for everyone.
