This is true. Even though I'm a self proclaimed pacifist, I'd probably try something if someone tried to take my plane. In the case of most hijackings, the hijackers are greatly outnumbered, and maybe one of them is armed, rarely with a gun. Those seem like fair odds. I suggest to anyone on a hijacked plane to try and take back the plane. Afterwards, maybe give em wet willies until you get back on the ground. Show them the consequences for their actions.
