Airline Passengers Fight Back With Anti-Hijacking Organization


Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, January 21, 2002-In answer to the terrorist attacks of September 11, Bill Brooks, a fifty-one-year-old businessman and former member of the U.S. Army Security Agency, has formed Flight Patriots LLC. The organization's primary purpose is to prepare its members to do whatever is necessary to thwart attacks on airplanes. Flight Patriots' Web site, www.flightpatriots.com, will make available such pertinent information as the safety record of individual airports and airlines. The site will also offer airline passengers and concerned citizens everywhere, advice on how to help prevent a hijacking, including how to attack an armed hijacker.

Not all the advice concerns physical resistance. Sometimes it's just teaching passengers how to passively assist by observing. It also points out ways to detect a potential hijack situation. Mr. Brooks says, "Flight Patriots is not a call for vigilantism, but rather a logical response to terrorism. Although it is the duty of all airline passengers to do whatever is within their power to prevent or foil an attempted hijacking, sometimes this may include simply staying in your seat and staying out of the way of airline crews and security personnel."

Members of Flight Patriots pledge to resist, without regard to personal consequences, any attempt by hijackers to take control of any passenger airliner. Inspired by the actions of the people on United Flight 93 who are thought to have diverted the hijacked plane from crashing into the White House, Flight Patriots members are committed to preventing another airliner from being used as a weapon in a terrorist attack.

Brooks says, "Since September 11th, many Americans have felt powerless to assist the fight against international terrorism, and specifically to combat those that would hijack passenger planes and use them as weapons against this country."

He believes that Flight 93 was a microcosm of the situation in the US today as he recalls one of the American heroes, Todd Beamer, whose last words before taking action against the hijackers were, "Are you guys ready? Let's roll." He also quotes wife Lisa Beamer's comments about her husband; "It's about standing up for what you believe in and taking action without thought to the personal consequences." Those words encompass the core beliefs of Flight Patriots.

In his own words, Mr. Brooks states the reason he organized Flight Patriots, "We are threatened by unreasoning haters of life, and we have a choice: we can sit in fear, or in denial that the situation is lethal---or we can fight against our would-be murderers."

All future airline passengers and those who want to support the effort to fight terrorism can log onto www.flightpatriots.com.

Flying The Unfriendly Skies

By Greg Hickman

The skies of America’s airline industry are anything but hospitable these days. Operational costs are up, profits (what profits?) are nonexistent, fuel costs are going through the roof and labor problems seem to always be looming on the horizon.

The entire airline industry, with the notable exception of Southwest Airlines, has made losing money an art form. Since the deregulation of the airline industry in 1979, a number of major carriers (including Eastern, Braniff and Pan Am) have gone under while scores of other carriers have filed for bankruptcy protection.

About the last thing the airlines needed were a pack of litigation crazed lawyers looking to score some nice pocket change - but that’s exactly what they got.

Some of the lawsuits filed by airline chasing lawyers include the following:

Economy class syndrome. Airlines are bracing themselves for lawsuits being brought by hundreds of passengers over the condition known as deep vein thrombosis (“DVT”). DVT, now commonly known in legal circles as “economy class syndrome” since this condition allegedly tends to afflict passengers on long haul flights, occurs when a blood clot forms due to hours of immobility and cramped seating.

Once the passenger leaves the plane, the blood clot may become dislodged and then travel to a vital organ and have a deadly result. Lawyers are citing that airlines have known about this problem for years and have failed to adequately warn their passengers. There’s the key to the piggy bank. Lawyers looking to win millions always claim that the big company knew about the problem and failed to correct it (remember the cigarette lawsuits?).

Is the evidence conclusive? Of course not. Does that matter to the lawyers looking hovering over the airline industry.? What do you think? These lawsuits have the potential for massive pay-outs, since the airlines have deep pockets to pick. In It’s Time to Wake Up and Smell the Lawyers, we examine how money grubbing lawyers always gravitate towards the deep pocketed companies. No big surprise here.

Toxic air onboard. Another hotbed of lawsuit activity concerning the airline industry involves toxic air in the passenger cabin. Airlines and airplane manufacturers are getting hit with a flurry of “toxic air” related lawsuits.

Various lawsuits brought by flight attendants allege that some airlines and the companies that manufactured the aircraft have known (bingo!) that the MD-80 and DC-9 aircraft have design flaws that make it easy for leaking chemical fluids to get sucked into the auxiliary power unit (a small turbine engine used to generate electricity and circulate cabin air before takeoff) and then mix with the cabin air. Naturally, the defendants deny the claims.

After a group of Alaska Airlines flight attendants garnered a $725,000 out of court settlement regarding the claims, Boeing and Honeywell were next on the hit list. The fun had just begun.

Let’s lighten the tone by reviewing a few goofy lawsuits filed against the airline industry.

A man, traveling aboard U. S. Airways, was taking a snooze when the plane landed in Birmingham, Alabama. Somehow the crew managed to leave him on the plane. When he awoke from his slumber, the man claimed it was really dark and he didn’t know if he was dead or alive. He sued for fright and other harms.

A Delta Airlines passenger won $1.25 million for “landing trauma” after a terrifying emergency landing en route to Cincinnati. Her lawyer contended that the episode caused her to suffer post-traumatic stress syndrome (there’s another one of those syndromes again) and aggravation of her pre-existing depression. The judge ruled that her terror during landing led to physical changes within the brain and that “could” be defined as an injury.

A government employee sued Air Canada for more than $500,000 because he could not order a 7-Up in French. During a flight, the man ordered a 7-Up in French and the flight attendant couldn’t understand the order. Eventually the man ended up with a Sprite. After a heated argument that ultimately required the local police to meet the plane upon arrival, the passenger sued over the language dispute (I’m not quite sure how the argument went since communication appears to have been the problem in the first place). Afterward, the man said he wanted Air Canada to apologize for not offering services in French and to toss him some pocket change for his trouble.

A judge ruled that Southwest Airlines did not unlawfully discriminate against one of its passengers when the airline required the passenger to purchase a second seat on one of its flights. The passenger tipped the scales at over 300 pounds.

A few days earlier, an official agency in Canada recommended that airlines be forbidden to charge their highly obese passengers for a second seat if a excessively corpulent passenger required one. This recommendation was based on the grounds that an highly overweight condition should be counted as a disability entitled to compensation. Twinkie anyone?

If you’re a member of American Airlines’ frequent flyer program, you may have received a class action settlement notice in the mail. The brouhaha centers around the airline’s decision to raise the point level requirement for a free coach class ticket from the previous 20,000 mile level to 25,000. Good grief, doesn’t anybody have something better to do with their time? By the way, while the class member may receive a 5,000 mile discount on a frequent flyer award or up to $75 off the purchase of a ticket (minimum ticket price of $220), the attorneys are looking to pocket fees “not to exceed $25 million.”

When a lawyer is looking to make a fortune, it seems like the sky’s the limit these days. Look out below!

Airline Employees Not Liable for Disclosing Threats, but Screeners Can Lose Their Jobs for It

By Anonymous

August 23, 2004 -- How can this be? Is it possible that airline employees at airports can be completely shielded from any liability from reporting suspected security threats while screeners can actually get fired for it? Yes. Incredible but true.

Section 125 of the Aviation and Transportation Security Act of 2001 (ATSA) amended federal law (49 USC Chapter 449, Subchapter II) by granting "...any employee of an air carrier...who makes a voluntary disclosure of any suspicious transaction...to any employee or agent of the Department of Transportation, the Department of Justice, any Federal, State, or local law enforcement officer, or any airport or airline security officer shall not be civilly liable to any person under any law or regulation of the United States, any constitution, law, or regulation of any State or political subdivision of any State, for such disclosure."

But section 111 (d) of the ATSA states:

"Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the Under Secretary of Transportation for Security may employ, appoint, discipline, terminate, and fix the compensation, terms, and conditions of employment of Federal service for such a number of individuals as the Under Secretary determines to be necessary..."

The recent decision by the Merit Systems Protection Board states that Board does not have jurisdiction over whistleblower complaints filed by screeners with the Transportation Security Administration. The legal rationale was that the ATSA gives the TSA supreme authority -- without regard to any other federal law -- to terminate employees. What's more, any employees so terminated have no recourse available to them under the law.

So if a screener reports a security violation, threat or anything that management doesn't "appreciate," a screener can be terminated, with apparently no hope of appealing the decision.

GenxRevealed helps its readers get free airline tickets to Hawaii

By Anonymous

Chicago, IL – February 3, 2003 - GenxRevealed is helping its readers get free airline tickets to Hawaii. With palm trees, pristine ocean of the Pacific, and balmy sunny weather, Hawaii is one of the most amazing Islands in the world. Yet this fantasy island seems out of reach to most Americans. With airline tickets to Hawaii starting at $1,000 or more, a trip to Hawaii is simply too expensive for most Americans.

Fortunately, we have discovered a method to get free airline tickets to Hawaii. “In fact, I used this method to travel to Hawaii four times last year and didn’t have to buy a single ticket thanks to frequent flyer miles,” says Uche, President/Editor-in-Chief of GenxRevealed. Anyone can follow this proven method to get their free airline tickets. This method is free and easy to use.

1. First, sign up for the frequent flyer program with your most favorite airline. Then stay loyal to that airline. Some airlines actually offer its new members free bonus miles just for signing up for the Frequent Flyer Mile Program.

2. Next, patronize their partners. Airlines use their frequent flyer mile programs as a marketing tool to promote their services. The best part about patronizing their partners is that it gets you that much closer to earning a free ticket. The more partners you patronize, the more free miles you earn. Some airline partners include hotels, car rental agencies, restaurants, mortgage companies, brokerage firms, grocery stores, florists, gas stations, long distance companies, internet service providers and credit card companies. Some credit cards like American Express’s Delta Gold Card offers new card holders as much as 20,000 frequent flyer miles just for getting a credit card. Over 50% of the miles you need for a free ticket to Hawaii. And sometimes these credit card companies’ waiver their annual fee when applicants apply online.

3. Last, stay informed. Always check the airlines website for new promotions. It is also a good idea to subscribe to their newsletter for the latest frequent flyer promotions. By following theses simple steps, you too can get free airline tickets to Hawaii.

GenxRevealed was created after Sept.11 to promote tourism. Today, it is the official travel guide for professionals seeking the best travel deals. We also provide hotel, spa & restaurant reviews, product reviews, travel articles, tips and more to travelers across the country.
