if such a gas didn't exist, i wonder how doctors would have been performing operations all along. trust me. rest assured it exists. can't think of one right out of the box.

but there is something called the laughing gas that makes the person to laugh histerically instead of putting him/her to sleep. I think its chemical name is Nitrous Oxide.. correct me if i'm wrong..

i don't think so. the cockpit doors are already the way that big k described in the first post. its just that its not fool proof yet.

And i don't think they would mind spending a few more dollars to make the planes that already cost millions this way... fool proof, i mean.

There were talks abt having Marshalls on commercial jets. I don' t know if that has happened though.
