How extremely bizarre.  Somebody has to introduce him to the concept of 
pressure hulls.  (My late father was a captain for Pan American
Airways.  You can say I've had a lot of reason to think about airline
security, over the years.)

It's not difficult to come up with some constructive ideas, by contrast.
For example, set up an interlocked security door between the cockpit and
cabin that cannot, by any likely means, be unlocked while the airplane
is in motion.
