Armed sky marshals aboard high-risk KLM flights

De Volkskrant newspaper reports that armed military police will be deployed
on high-risk international flights by KLM Royal Dutch Airlines from next
week. These sky marshals will travel incognito and will be authorised to
shoot in the event of a hijacking. The agents underwent secret training in
Germany and Israel last year on the orders of the Justice Ministry.

In the wake of the September 11 attacks, KLM pushed for armed guards on
selected flights but met with safety objections from their pilots. All
technical, legal and safety problems now appear to have been resolved.
