Or you could just leave your gun in the holster on your belt
Just wear a kilt and it's no problem. ...
This only thing that makes this method not the best option is if you're in a public bathroom stall and anyone walking by can see your feet/ankles underneath the stall walls.

That's the same group of weirdos that doesn't use their fly and drop their pants at the urinal like giant toddlers.
maybe I live a sheltered life, but is this a thing?

This month’s incident could provide ammunition to congressional critics of the air marshal program, who say that it is wasteful and unnecessary. The program accounts for about 10 percent of the T.S.A.’s budget, costing nearly $1 billion per year. Critics say it is unclear that the program has actually deterred a terrorist attack.
... If I found that gun under this circumstance, I would have quietly called over a flight attendant, ID'd myself and ask her to have the FAM come over to talk with me (without telling exactly why). It might save a career and avoid terrible embarrassment and if it wasn't a LEO's gun, it would then be in the proper hands.
If an NES person found it, i suppose the question would be "would it be field stripped or detail stripped before being returned?"
Refasten your belt around your knees and this will hold the gun (and pants) off the floor.
Also, unless someone is a diddler/pervert weirdo, they're not going to see your gun from outside the stall.

The identity of the FAMs on a flight is classified info and will not be disclosed to you.If I found that gun under this circumstance, I would have quietly called over a flight attendant, ID'd myself and ask her to have the FAM come over to talk with me (without telling exactly why).
Compare the estimated breakage of a few decades of civilian carry on planes to the destruction of 9/11 and I'll bet you will find it would be a historical net positive.I agree. The rest of us should be allowed to carry on planes.
If you went to a flight attendant and asked them to out the FAM without saying why, you would instantly become a threat. Unless you know who the FAM is (they often aren't that hard to identify if you pay attention), then just let the flight attendant know and let the chips fall as they may.
OMG, that would have been too funny.
Flush her pistol down the toilet. ...

As to the shitting in public debate, it's pretty easy to keep your pants around your upper shins when on the throne. Drop your trousers to just below your knee, sit down while holding them there, and spread knees apart. Pistol stays in its holster, out of sight of prying eyes beneath the stall, your pants stay dry, and you don't forget anything.
I can't believe I just had to explain that.
You know its possible to keep your pants up to your knees, right?
Everyone needs a throwdown gun.Pretty sure I'd just keep it and not tell anyone... well, except NES of course.
You would be arrested for interfering with a federal air marshal or a similar contrived charge. Both the marshal and the service would want to deflect. Whoever offered himself up to the authorities would get burned, even if the authorities had to make up a law to do it.You walk out of the bathroom and grab the intercom and hit #96 like your at Walmart.
Then proceed to say "attention flyers if you left your Sig P229 in 357 Sig in the rear lavatory. Please see the flight attendant at the rear of the aircraft"

...I would start to get really worried if the gun was not a Sig .357 or .40. If it was a .40, I'd ask if I could talk to a pilot (.357 for FMSs, 40s for FFDOs the last I checked)...
