I hope that by "armed" you don't mean firearms. Putting a bullet through the hull of a pressurized cabin is usually a bad idea.

I think armed marshalls will eventually be used on more flights. I know someone who flies on Royal Jordanian Airlines and they routinely have several armed guards on every flight. From what I've heard, one or more of these hijackings might have been prevented if there were armed agents on the flights. I could live with this and I think after yesterday, most others would too.</font>
