I don't really see anyone hijacking a plane with a boxcutter or even a knife again. It worked last time because no one was expecting the planes to be used as weapons. It's a one time deal. Now people know, so if some jackoff tries to hijack a plane with a boxcutter, he's going to get his ass beat by the rest of the passengers.

Spot on, FATPad. I think the bigger concern now is guys like the would-be shoebomber, or perhaps more likely, bombers who never get on the plane - they just check in luggage with a bomb in it. Our airport security is still terrible, recent tests run by the FAA have seen security failure rates as high as 75%. I think brute force hijackings are likely to be a thing of the past, due in large part to increased passenger attentiveness, but terrorists can (sadly) still rely on good ol' American laziness/incompetence on the job.
