Well you have the FedEx pilot who found out he was going to lose his job, took out a life insurance policy, and jumpseated a FedEx flight. He attacked the pilots 20 minutes out of Memphis with a wrench. The pilots subdued him with erratic manuevers and some luck.
I would not assume that guy cared if the plane was cargo or not.
You can hear that ATC tape btw..
