[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Serious question - it is probably wise to equip commercial jets with flare and chaff countermeasures. [/quote] It would be so expensive to do this that people wouldn't be able to afford to fly anymore. Additionally, the training on this is very difficult. There is a saturation issue with airline pilots and training, the more they have to be trained on (lots of maneuvering is necessary as the plane still has to evade the missiles, the flares only give it a fighting chance to get away as it confuses the missiles).
