The walls of an airplane are extremely thin to reduce weight. With that in mind, if a random bullet from a civilian that isn't meant to reduce damage (like a glaser round) hits the shell of the airplane, everyone is DEAD.
Planes don't explode if a round penetrates the fuselage, it just leaks air. The pilots are warned about the drop in pressure and they fly the plane at a lower altitude.
Seems to me like he said This is why guns should be allowed on planes. Meaning if passengers had been packing, only the ragheads would have croaked.
Are you afraid of guns?

The movies got it from somewhere
Their imagination.
