Does everyone realize that a pressurized jet is actually leaking air out of multiple holes? I just recently learned this. If added up, my guess is they'd be a lot bigger than a .45" hole. The pressurization system simply pumps more air in than leaves, and can compensate for all sorts of problems short of having a massive part of the hull removed.
So, would a bullet hole through the hull of a plane really cause massive decompression and/or passengers getting sucked out? And if not, why can't we start flying with CCW's?
