Who would go to hijack a plane with a slingshot?
I mean do even if 50% of the passengers were terrorists with high powered catapults what are they going to do when they get to the reenforced cockpit door? Maybe they'll shake up a can of coke and fizz it into the lock. Given around a month the mechanism might be erroded by the acid. Oh, best ban coke too.

Well, its the same as tweezers really, if you can do it, you deserve the darn plane. I can understand some safety, but atm it is getting a bit crazy.
 
On the way here they tossed my shampoo bottle cause it had a max content of 120 ml, which was higher then 100 allowed. Eventhough it was half empty.
 
I quess you just have to get used to going on planes without your catapult :narnar: Cant really change the rules.
