      If you’re on a plane with Trump, Putin, Xi, musk, and 30 other billionaires, and you have a gun with only one bullet, who do you shoot?

      The pilot.

        I would tell the billionaires if they look outside they’ll see an underage girl, then shoot the plane’s instruments and then help the pilot escape with me with the only two parachutes on board.

            One of the windows would be better. There aren’t a ton of places where a single bullet will take down a plane, if you can get a window you can at least depressurize the cabin and force a really sketchy landing, but guaranteeing the plane crashes when it’s full of people capable of keeping it in the air is no small feat. Maybe if you have access to the maintenance cabins you can pop one of the hydraulic manifold blocks, I’m not sure if the main ones have redundant fail-safes if the whole manifold spontaneously opens a new outlet.
