Apparently, transporting cadavers on commercial flights is a fairly common practice. So, imagine yourself on a long trans-oceanic flight, and one of the corpses in storage isn't quite dead. It manages to crawl up out of the storage area and bites someone. Suddenly you've got the beginnings of an outbreak in an enclosed, crowded space... 30,000 feet in the air. The pilot locks himself down in the cockpit leaving the rest of the crew and passengers to fend for themselves, because he's a d**k (albeit a d**k with a strong survival instinct). The plane is many hours away from any safe landing since you're currently in the middle of an ocean. What would you do?

Well first, I'd break open the cockpit just so I can punch the pilot in the face for being a wuss, and then of course I'd have to find a blunt object, like a pipe or base ball bat, so I knock of the heads of the zombies before they get to anyone else. 3nodding If you think logically, zombies should be weak due to the fact they are decaying corpses.

Yes, but, you must kill the brain itself to completely stop a Zombie. It's just teh way it is. Personally, I'd ask my brother to call them off, at least until we're on the ground! xd (I thought I'd asked him to not use his Zombies against me....) But, if it's the fault of someone other than my brother, I'd find something nearby to fight it with and tell all idiots to get away from the Zombies to prevent the T virus from spreading too much.

Here is my view...

1. Dont bother with the pilot. Since he locked himself in the cockpit, he is safe. If you bust the door open and scold him, he may go crazy, or worse. Leave him be while he is sane at the moment, a good thing, since he is flying the plane. (who knows, he may go insane cause of theoutbreak, but for this situation, lets just say he locks the door)
2. have all the people who were not infected gather to the front of the plane where the carge hold is the farthest (Since the bodies will most likely be there in the first place)
3. Block off all entrances and halls to the location where everyone is, to keep a quarantine area.
4. Gather a small group of strong people I (when I say small, a group of three or four, since larger groups are more then likely to fall faster since they would be crowded within a smaller area, like a plane for example ^^)) I would personally be in the group, since Im not really afraid of anything (im not bragging or acting tough, Im just the type of guy who would put my life down for others)
5. Once the three man group is ready, look for any thing can be used as a weapon, perferrably something sharp (since a gun will not likely be on the plane, you'll have to improvise) Instead of using a blunt weapon, find a way to make something sharp. Reason for having something sharp, you can pierce the skull and destroy brain, or if your strong enough, destroy the neck where the nerves run. (even if brain is not destroyed, if it has no way to send signals to muscles, problem solved)
6. There is two ways to go about step 6. -1. If you were lucky enough to keep most people from getting infected, send the hunter group out to take down the very small group of deadheads, moving silently, quickly, and carefully, keeping their gaurd up. Use live bait tactics, such as allow one person to bait a deadhead to come close, while the other two ambush it. Continue strategy. If the zombies are grouped together, work as a team to corner them or bring them to you, while having somewort of plan to taking them to the ground, where you would have the advantage to strike while their down. -2. If you were unfortunate, and there is a larger group of deadheads, keep the hunters and strong people by the closed entrances with their weapons. Since deadheads aren't too smart, they might not bother to try and push entrances open. So you would keep all the humans quiet till the plane lands safely at it's destination, and have the military or whatever police force is there to take care of the deadheads properly with the right steps (note* you either have to get a hold of the airport, military, or such by cell, or if your lucky enough, ask the pilot through the door to radio it in). If the deadheads tried to come into the entrances, they wouldnt be able to just waltz in, since their is luggage and stuff in their way, so the hunters and such would be able to use their weapons to strike while the zombies have a hard time moving over the entrances.

That is my view of how to handle the zombies on a plane. There could be more added and it could have some mroe clear options, but thats the rough and quick way explained by myself. *bows* What do you think?

Nice ideas. They sound like they'd work quite well in this situation. 3nodding

Thank you Milady, I always do my best to think things through and come up with a logical, yet effective plan. ^^

I thought so too.

To me... I just know people don't work together well when in a highly stressed situation.

But this is up for discussion as I'm sure there are many right and wrong way about this scenario.
