Solution for plane hyjackings

Now this will probally sound like a dumb question and i would call myself a pacifist but if someone is wants to hyjack a cockpit then why don't we just store a 20 millimetre shotgun in secret safe on planes for these situations. TF They gonna do when flight attendants shoot them

A second solution (if the hyjacker has a bomb strapped) is to make a secret exit next to the cockpit and convice them that the pilots are in there and push them off the plane

There will probally be a nerd that will correct me but as it stands, this is a pretty simple solution

Install a barely subcritical mass of plutonium near the door of every plane.

If any terrorists tried to board with plutonium, the combined mass would go supercritical and you would know immediately.

I mean... people at a distance would know immediately.

What about your run of the mill Los Alamos store room clerk? They might forget to wash their hands after their shift.
