Experimental Airliner Cannot Be Hijacked

Just in time for an era when terrorists don't hijack airplanes anymore, European scientists at BAE Systems are perfecting concepts for a passenger jet that CANNOT BE HIJACKED. Fingerprint systems allow only approved pilots -- or those carrying the severed fingers of approved pilots -- to fly the planes. Onboard systems override control to avoid crashing into buildings. A special computer system watches passengers and detects suspicious behavior. When all else fails, a computer can take control from whoever is flying it and land the airplane at the nearest airport.
