* GunsDoNotWorkThatWay: Sykes claims that he and his men are using hollow-point ammunition to avoid puncturing the airplane and causing depressurization. Most airplane skin is 1-2mm thick, and even a hollow-point from a 9mm semi-automatic pistol will have no problem puncturing through two millimeters of aluminum.
