[people sucked out of airplanes stories]

Then the answer to the hijacking problem is trivially simple: attach
the roof of the cockpit with explosive bolts. When the hijackers break
into the cockpit and start threatening the crew, blow the roof. The
hijackers will be sucked out, and everybody else should have been
belted in.

Problem solved.
