Hola, Me llamo Meteor7. Como Estas?

My Motto is "This is an FMC in the cockpit of a passenger jet"

FMC is short for Flight Management Computer. ACARS is a program that runs inside the FMC that is designed to send times, messages, and other things to dispatch.

In many modern passenger jets since the 1990s, simply typing in the hijack alert code on the keypad of the FMC or on the keypads of any airphone would send the hijack alert aquawk out via ACARS. That's a lot of keypads. That's a lot of places on each plane where the hijack alert code could be sent. And ANY CREW MEMBER could do it, at ANY OF THESE PLACES on each plane!

To stop every single member of the crew from pressing in the 4-digit code at any of these keypads would be near impossible. It would require either incapacitating the entire crew of each aircraft INSTANTLY over the ENTIRE PLANE at the same time!

It becomes entirely ridiculous when you are claiming that this near-impossibility was achieved not just on one plane, but on ALL FOUR!

How did these amazing Arab hijackers do it? Did they use MAGIC and SUPER-POWERS?!
