Give the pilots a panic button that throws the planes controls into 'fly
by wire' mode via satellite uplink and video cameras. Nothing can be done
in the airplane to change it's course in any way other than down by
physically removing parts of the plane.
 Attempting to do that would probably piss off the passengers and crew
sufficiently for them to take steps.
 Action takes place when hope for safety is gone. The first person to lose
hope is called Hero.
