Air travel security method, system and device
A method of providing air travel security for passengers traveling via an aircraft comprises situating a remotely activatable electric shock device on each of the passengers in position to deliver a disabling electrical shock when activated; and arming the electric shock devices for subsequent selective activation by a selectively operable remote control disposed within the aircraft. The remotely activatable electric shock devices each have activation circuitry responsive to the activating signal transmitted from the selectively operable remote control means. The activated electric shock device is operable to deliver the disabling electrical shock to that passenger.

This application is a provisional of No. 60/381,368, filed on May 20, 2002.
We claim:
1. A method of providing air travel security for passengers traveling via an aircraft, said method comprising the steps of: (a) prior to the flight, making a determination of passengers to be monitored during the flight; (b) generating a unique flight code for each flight and storing the unique flight code into electronic circuitry of remotely activatable electric shock devices to be worn by the predetermined passengers during the flight wherein the unique flight code is generated in a manner so as to prevent unauthorized use and tampering of the remotely activatable electric shock devices by making it impossible for a predetermined passenger to predict or determine the unique flight code for the flight; (c) situating a remotely activatable electric shock device on predetermined passengers to be worn during the flight such that, for each predetermined passenger, the situated electric shock device is in position to deliver a disabling electrical shock to that passenger and reading the unique flight code stored in the electronic circuitry of the remotely activatable electric shock device worn by each predetermined passenger and verifying the unique flight code relative to the flight; (d) arming said electric shock devices for subsequent selective activation of said electric shock devices by a selectively operable remote control means, wherein each activated electric shock device situated on a predetermined passenger is operable to deliver said disabling electrical shock to that passenger; and (e) subsequent to the flight, removing said electric shock devices from said predetermined passengers.
18. An air travel security system for providing air travel security for passengers traveling via an aircraft, said air travel security system comprising: a plurality of remotely activatable electric shock devices each having an armed state wherein said electric shock device produces, upon activation, a disabling electric shock; said remotely activatable electric shock devices being adapted to be situated, one on each of predetermined passengers during a flight on the aircraft such that, for each predetermined passenger, a situated electric shock device is in position to deliver a disabling electrical shock to that predetermined passenger; a selectively operable remote control means adapted to be disposed within the aircraft during the flight for producing and transmitting an activating signal for activating said electric shock devices; each of said remotely activatable electric shock devices having activation circuitry responsive to said activating signal which causes, upon receipt of said activating signal, said remotely activatable electric shock devices to produce a disabling electric shock; means for coding flight specific information into said remotely activatable electric shock devices wherein said means for coding includes means for generating a unique flight code for each flight and storing the unique flight code into electronic circuitry of the remotely activatable electric shock devices wherein the unique flight code is generated in a manner so as to prevent unauthorized use and tampering of the remotely activatable electric shock devices by making it impossible for a predetermined passenger to predict or determine the unique flight code for the flight; and means for reading the unique flight code stored in the electronic circuitry of the remotely activatable electric shock device worn on each predetermined passenger and verifying the unique flight code relative to the flight.
27. The air travel security system of claim 18, wherein each of said remotely activatable electric shock devices comprises a main body in a form of a bracelet.
28. The air travel security system of claim 18, wherein each of said remotely activatable electric shock devices comprise a main body and a strap means secured to said main body.
39. The remotely activatable electric shock device of claim 38, wherein said bracelet is movable between a closed in-use configuration and an opened situating configuration.
40. The remotely activatable electric shock device of claim 39, wherein said remotely activatable electric shock device comprises alarm circuitry, which alarm circuitry produces an alarm if said bracelet is removed from its closed in-use configuration, when said electric shock device is in an armed condition.
Snip all the way past number 59 of this Orwellian folly down to:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Recently, specifically since Sep. 11, 2001, security at major airports throughout the world has become a very serious concern. Security measures at such major airports have been increased very significantly, in many ways. Passengers are now checked much more thoroughly for identification and for weapons. There are also many more security personnel at major airports and also many more air marshals present on commercial flights. In spite of all the presently used tight security precautions, there is still no effective way to subdue a terrorist, a hijacker, or an unruly passenger. Even new "high-tech" biometric systems (e.g. iris scans, thumb prints, voice identification) might all fail in preventing a hijacker or terrorist from gaining entry to an aircraft.
and on and on and on . .. surely one of the weird documents I have EVER read.
More can be discovered looking up the patent .. I see no reason to post it in its entirely. What could be done just working on the seats of the plane instead (if that was what had to be done?) Why destatus everyone with torture implements?
It's PATENTLY absurd!
But if you need a dose of ORWELLIAN BAFFLE GAB This is a fascinating read for everyone!!
On a CDROM or a DVD I'll include it in its entirety ..
Too much!!
Really TOO much!!
