- The Solid Steel Cockpit Door (Op-Ed).
- After the tragedies of September 11th, all eyes focused on a problem that had worried airline pilots in the backs of their minds for decades: cockpit security. Calls for a solid wall between the cockpit and the passenger cabin have been heard from the media and from the public by the thousands.
- The cockpit door of a modern airliner is there to keep the pax from seeing into the cockpit and becoming alarmed by the many warning lights that come on during a perfectly normal flight. ... By Federal Aviation Regulation FAR a cockpit door must be weak enough to be kicked open by a normal person in the event of an emergency. ...
- The regs also mandate a solid cockpit door that can be locked. ...
- By FAR, the cockpit door must be closed and locked prior to takeoff and remain so thorough the flight, unless it was opened so a FA could provide food service to the pilots, or if one of the pilots had to leave the cockpit for physiological reasons. ... The door remained weak but it was assumed--in some cases correctly--that a nonprofessional hijacker could be convinced that there was no way into the cockpit and therefore kept out.
- The cockpit windows of all modern transport category aircraft can be either pulled out and removed or cranked far enough back to allow a pilot to crawl out. ...
- In addition, the cockpit door is not secure because it must allow for a rapid depressurization. ... Cockpit doors are designed to open completely or have pressure fuses (small doors built into the main door) that will open to allow the pressure to equalize. ...
- It has been widely suggested to just seal the cockpit completely, removing the door and replacing it with a solid bulkhead. ...
- Any pressure relief fuse in the cockpit/cabin bulkhead would render it non-secure so it would have to be designed to withstand the pressure of a decompression. If it did not, than the cabin/cockpit bulkhead would fail, possibly crushing the pilots, severing control cables, or deforming the fuselage to such a degree that it would fail. ...
- With this in mind, it is easy to see the difficulties of installing a pressure bulkhead between the cockpit and the passenger cabin. ...
- Therefore, walling off the cockpit could require the replacing the entire commercial aviation fleet with new designs. ...
