1. Medical problems some passengers may have with the gas? While it
might be a reasonable tradeoff to lose a passenger or two if the
whole plane (and whatever it may hit) can be saved, making that =
determination
that early (at the first sign of an hijack attempt) would likely be
impossible.
2. Gas masks
