The Spaghetti monster could also rise up in a giant battle against the great pumpkin and cause massive amounts of damage in a major town in the Midwest. These are the sort of things that need to be taken into account also...
Private Jets are not built like airliners. Meaning without cockpit doors in many cases and with much more freedom of movement in the air. The TSA could do nothing to stop a nutty idiot with a cause within corporate or general aviation. We are more than capable of doing it ourselves without growing the workfare program known as TSA.
