Having said that, writer David Kopel (along with author and pilot,
Captain David Petteys) notes that the risks related to the hull
being punctured are greatly exaggerated. In a recent National
Review Online article dated September 16, they state, "There is only
one known instance in which a bullet hole in an aircraft frame
yanked objects across the plane, expanded, and sucked a person out
into the sky. That was the James Bond movie Goldfinger. The movie
was not intended to teach real-life lessons about physics." (Go to

entire article.)
